Hello everyone. I decided to take the plunge after years of PC use and months of perusing the mac store and mac websites. I settled on a Panther G4 Powerbook, 1 gig ram, 15" screen. I need help with these problems:

1. My keyboard on my laptop stopped working around the time I plugged in my USB graphire2 stylus pad and wireless pen. The light that brightens up the keyboard in dark conditions still works fine, it's just my keyboard doesn't respond at all. Anyone have a solution for this before I take it down to the shop?

2. Sometimes when I drag my disk icon from my desktop onto the trash/eject icon in the dock, the disk icon disappears but the disk doesn't eject from the Superdrive and I can't eject the disk in any other way unless I reboot Panther. Anyone know why this is and how to solve it?

3. In Finder, I can't drag any contents from a CD-RW into folders on my HD. I can do this in Winxp using Explorer. How can I do this with Panther?

Other than these problems, Mac is definately beautiful and an eye candied alternative to drab PCs. It's just my ignorance about Macs at this stage that is causing some mild frustration over some problems I have with the OS, I will post these other problems when I come across them again. Thanks, in advance, for your help.
