"MacBook, MacBook Pro Keyboard Firmware Update 1.0
This MacBook and MacBook Pro firmware update addresses an issue where the first key press may be ignored if the computer has been sitting idle. It also addresses some other issues.
For more details, see About the MacBook, MacBook Pro Keyboard Firmware Update 1.0.
System Requirements: Mac OS X 10.5.2 or later"

I don't own a Macbook/Pro but have seen complaints on this in the past. A reader said this update seems to have helped:

"I just wanted to sound in on this update, as I have been experiencing the "ignore first key press after idling for a while"-issue on my SR MBP ever since I got it last year. I've applied the Update and so far haven't seen any more response problems from the keyboard, so I guess it did fix a problem for me.

" Introducing Xsan 2

Xsan 2 combines enhanced performance with Apple's legendary ease of use, allowing even first-time users to set up and quickly deploy a SAN.

Fully integrated with Mac OS X Leopard and Mac OS X Server Leopard, Xsan is also now qualified to work with third-party RAID storage."

"1GB iPod shuffle now $49; 2GB model, just $69
It's the world's most wearable music player, and the 1GB iPod shuffle - just $49 - is now the most affordable iPod ever. It also has a new 2GB sibling that costs just $69 and allows customers to wear even more music on their sleeves. Or belts. Or lapels. While the 1GB iPod shuffle is available immediately, the 2GB will be available later this month. Both models come in five colors - silver, blue, green, purple and a (PRODUCT) RED special edition) - weigh just half an ounce, and are just half a cubic inch in volume."
