Quick question--new Mac owner

I just got my new MacBook pro today. So far so good. Had to reconfigure my router to use WEP only to get it to connect, but that so far has been the only headache.

My only gripe is the ■■■■ delete button. It defaults as the Windows backspace. But what do I do if I want to delete characters after the cursor and not before? There is not another button.

The keyboard will also take some time getting used to. :sigh:

Probably will have more questions shortly. Still playing around. And I should be working! :stuck_out_tongue:
