I have a new MacBook (Dec '08) and everything is working fine with one exception. When I type numbers into the calculator app they appear on the screen in slow motion with a nice long pause as each number typed is displayed. On our iMac the calculator app just flies along and has no problem keeping up no matter how fast I enter in numbers. Any ideas where to start on this one? Besides the standard software we have installed Microsoft Office and Handbrake.

Turns out one of the kids loves to hear the MacBook speak and turned on the option in Calculator called Speak Key Pressed. I had the volume off so I never heard the key being spoken (and hence the delay). Sorry for the stupid post.
