i have had this mbp sr 2.2 ghz for about two weeks now. there are the follwing issues:
1. sometimes when i close the screen to put the mbp to sleep, its refuses to " wake up". there i at least a 2-3 minute wait between re-opening/flipping open the lid/screen and seeing the login/password prompt.
2. a few times after i download something (saving the file by default on desktop), i do not see the downloaded file on desktop. rebooting the machine lets me "refresh" the desktop.
3. i have not installed a lot of software (neooffice, vlc, x11, adium, camino, msoffice and vmware). i had installed matlab but now uninstalled it. but i find that i have access to only 45 gb. hard disk space allotted to vmware is only 10gb for running winXP. isnt that strange?

What are everyones thoughts on these.

4. i eventually (in a few weeks) want to make either a triple boot (osX with winXP and Ubuntu). do people suggst i keep using vmware of use bootcamp(with partitioning the hard disk)?
5. how do you find out whether the mbp screen is made by samgsung or lg?

no one?
