Sounds like you need a Mac Chiropractor...the keys are designed to snap into place--it can be fixed in a matter of seconds. Having said that, if you don't know how to do it, then bring it to Apple. I second the opinion of Best Buy's Geek Squad. You may find a winner, but you may not. At Apple, they are all competent.

If you can't take it to an Apple store, you can pop the keys off and put them on straight again if they're just partly disconnected from the mechanism underneath. There are instructions on the web, such as at [this site|http://www.powerbookmedic.com/MacBook-Pro-Keys---Individual-Key-Keycap-p-1 6753.html].
