    It just won't stay depressed. I'll push it in, it pops out, push it in again, it pops out, again, again, again... Eventually I'll get lucky and it stays in for as long as half an hour, but soon enough for no rhyme or reason it pops out again. I've had this laptop for about a month and love everything about it except for this stupid eject button. Does anybody have any suggestions on how to keep it depressed before I just cut it off.

    That's awfully weird, but I've seen it happen....... it's basically just a little catch mechanism... if you used a screw drive and a flashlight... you could see it in the slot... if you just gave it a little push, you bend it out enough to catch.... we're talking like 1-2mm at most.... it just needs a little push.
