Hello Veronica,
I'm confused by what you're seeing, too.
When you're on the messages table but not interacting, what happens when you
press VO-Down Arrow? You should find a horizontal splitter and not be able to
go down any further.

I guess if its going into a 17 inch MBP, 27" iMac or, Mac pro, a new heat sink

Ah, ok. Well, in the mobile site, you can navigate by links with VO-command-L.
On the full site, you can navigate by headings. each newsfeed heading is a
level 6, so once you get to a newsfeed on heading level 6, you can then either
press VO-command-h or VO-command-M (for same heading number.

Well, not saying the info in that article was correct :) They may have
not bothered upgrading and if you did, would it still fit in the Apple

Ok. Because faster processors generally mean more heat and sometimes a new

I was googling around and the upgrade process sounded non-trivial with
acetone used to clean the heat paste off the old heat sinks to re-attach
them to the new processors. Dunno if I would attempt that.
