I just did the macbook pro firmware update.

Followed instructions exactly.

My mbp made the beep when i held down the power button but is now stuck on the blue screen .

Has been for 10 mins. There is not a staus bar indicating progress.

Should i turn the mbp off and try again?

NO!! Just leave it.. DO NOT POWER OFF!

Some times it takes a while for the machine to reboot!!

In some cases, it'll take up to 20 mins, if not more...
