Hey I've noticed whenever I use spell check for the first time since opening iChat, or Safari or Text edit I get the spinning beach ball for like thirty seconds on my brand new iBook... anyone got a clue what's up with this problem?

Perhaps fix_prebinding slows down the computer for some reason. Try to open a terminal with "top" and look if it shows what's eating the CPU time when you start the spelling check.
