Damn mailing sjob@apple.com really works!

I just got of the phone from a Apple Europe PR representative. Wow... simply wow.

I emailed Steve, because I got fed up with the at least 12 hours long CHKDSK of the C: drive when booting windows and about the always on backlit keyboard in windows...

The PR agent told me that Apple is working on the backlit issue and it will not be present in the future macbooks and that Apple will issue a solution in a few months about current macbooks. This struck me as Apple just recently released BC 3.1 and why isn't it fixed by now?

About the CHKDSK she scheduled a phone call with an Apple IT specialist tomorrow morning... Though I doubt that he or she will help as this forum has provided a possible solution.

So in other words your problem is with Windows and didn't get fixed. Yeah, it really works

How long did it take before you got a response? Haha!

Right, right?

This is not towards OP but it's amazing how many people think that a problem in Windows is directly Apple's fault. Sure the backlight is a small annoyance but Windows still works and that's what Apple advertised - many don't know that in the fine print somewhere, it probably notes that Windows can run but isn't supported by Apple.

You don't even know the last name of Apple's CEO is Jobs, not Job.

Just a typo, off course I know his name!

about 24 hours to get a mail from the PR asking my phone number and after that 4-5 hours to receive the phone call

It works to get some sort of response, conversation... They cannot fix problems. in an instant...

Right, right?

Apple is "selling" BootCamp as part of Mac OS X. BootCamp is a way to run Windows on a Mac... Thus Apple should make sure that BC works as it should!
