    Does anyone know how do I turn off my keyboard light in Windows? I can only make it really really dim, but I can't turn it off completely like I do in Mac OS X.

    Thanks.

    Well, I'm using the latest Macbook Pro...they changed the keyboard layout for the Fn + F1/F2/F3... keys. Fn + F8 is binded to 'Rewind' on iTunes.
