Character Pallette won't GO AWAY!
OK The mini has been relegated after a year of trusty service, yes that is correct a year - it has been a year since I first tried mac. Once you try mac you never go back... ask my colleague I am now.
Anyway, the mini has been up and running, serving network media, getting podcasts, serving some internal website and record TV for 109 days and it's fine.
It plays media for hours each day from one of three USB external hard disks and everything is tickity boo... show me one of these Windoos based shuttles that'll do that. Yes I know XP is very stable, oi mac fan boy stop sniggering it is.
However just recently, say the last 7 days I've noticed this weird bug - yes OS X has them. The character pallette won't stay away. I close it and boom a few minutes later it's back.
Turns out this isn't an uncommon bug... in fact Apple has a knowledge base article about it... http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25641
However the mini is on 10.4 - so it is still puzzling.
