Macbook missing keystroke resolution finally?

Check software update, boys and girls. Apple has posted a firmware update that will, ostensibly, resolve the LONGSTANDING issue of the first keystroke in a typing session being skipped.

Let us know how it works for you, gentle readers.

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.

The update package will install an updater application into the Applications/Utilities folder and will launch it automatically. Please follow the instructions in the updater application to complete the update process.

    Interestingly, I have a macbook. I’ve had this problem (noticed it has been happening a lot lately). Ran Software Updater and got nothing. Went to the link directly, tried to install, got nothing.
    My macbook apparently doesn’t need this update. That’s odd, since I’m sure it does. But what do I know? I’m just a user.

    Works great for me. Finally resolved this annoying bug.
    It would be much easier for people who does not read instructions (like me) if the installation file would copy it self to the Desktop instead of the Applications/Utilities folder.
