I currently run a small Pro Tools LE (mBox) system on a G5 and am in the

I'm a newbie to the mac, having just gotten a mini. With my PC, I can format
a CD-RW for the whole 700mb or so and write files at will. With my mac, I

don't understand anything about it.

Safari and Entourage have been showing a small "b" symbol where a space
or a dash would go. They are everywhere! How do I get rid of them? I've
