Hi Guys,
Let me begin by saying that I have no idea how to use a Mac properly
I had a Mac laptop many years ago but didn't use it much other than for text based stuff and I only bought it because it had a fantastic bronze coloured keyboard. But now I have ditched my main desktop Windows based PC and got myself a Mac Mini to use in its place. It's the older G4 version running at 1.25 ghz with 1gb of RAM. The Operating System is OS X 10.5.8 and it came pre-installed with Airport Extreme and Bluetooth.
My situation here is unusual in that my keyboard and mouse are about 12 feet from the screen which is a 50" Plasma TV.
That is the cause of my first problem. Text size.
When a web page opens up, the text is to small for me to read. I can zoom in and get the text big enough but I can't find a way to save that font/text size so that all pages open already at that size. To be honest, I don't even know if such a thing is possible.
Any help or advice would be very much appreciated.
