I thought from what I understood of this is that the cursor goes to the right of a character when you right arrow and to the left when left arrow, so the repeated character always happens. I agree that the editing thing gets confusing on a Macbook because you have to deal with this issue plus deleting in the wrong direction from usual. I don't get how if you had a forward delete, say you put an extra T on the word Brent, if you arrow until you hear the second T and hit forward delete, it should delete the space after, arrow to the space to backspace out the T, I think. I'm not sure why Apple chose to read this way if indeed the cursor isn't different on the Mac.
