Something about closing your MacBook Pro's lid

by sekitori - 5/18/06 2:18 AM

1. I found the lid actually can't be closed very tightly, if you look from the side, you'll nitice ther's a little space between the lid and the body. Is it normal?
2. Can you close your lid while you can still have your MSN online, aMule downloading? I can't...

1. Probably. You wouldn't want key marks on your screen, would you?
2. Now that's a clever lid. It actually prevents you from closing the lid when you are downloading something from MSN online? Wow! neat trick.
On the other hand, closing the lid on a laptop will make it go to sleep. Machines that are asleep are, be definition, not doing anything constructive or productive and that includes downloading stuff.

Got any other nits you want picking?

Actually it has been discussed in several other Mac forums, that the lid of the MBP 15" is gabbing a litle more on the left side....
