A month later Apple released the <a href="http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macbooksmcfirmwareupdate11.html" rel="nofollow">firmware patch</a> to fix RSD and I installed it. I've never had another random shutdown since. I love my MacBook!!! Best computer and OS I've ever used. Obviously there are a few other reasons that can cause shutdowns. You might also want to <a href="http://www.apple.com/support/macbook_macbookpro/batteryupdate/" rel="nofollow">update your battery</a> or replace it completely which Apple is happily doing if it exhibits certain problems. wow,

Have them check BOTH the logic board and the RAM, especially if you added RAM since the initial purchase. Found out that not only was my logic board bad, but also one of the RAM modules had gone bad as well. Same thing happened with me recently.
