I was a happy black MacBook owner for the past 3 months, but it suddenly went hiatus since last week and it keeps getting worse. Yes, I’m one of the victims of MacBook RSS (Random Shutdown Syndrome). It took Apple a while to admit that there is a problem with MacBooks and finally taking care of it. Many sites are reporting that the cause of RSS is the heatsink that expands and touching a sensor cable where it eventually damages the cable. I have sent in my MacBook for repair and I’ll post an update in the near future on how it went.

Thank you Chris, they told me it’s going to take 2-3 weeks.

It has been two weeks since our MacBook went in for a one week repair and now it looks like it will be another week. Argh!
