looks to be a difference in how the font renders on the Mac, the text is
rendering wider and there isn't enough room for that last item.

several ways to fix this, two which I'll mention here each introduce their
own issues that you'll have to update:

one would be to change the LI from float: left to display: inline-block and
give the UL the properties white-space: nowrap and overflow: hidden. the
side effect will be that each LI will suddenly have space in between them,
so you'll have to remove whitespace in between the LI tags, </li><li> or
atleast HTML Comment them out (and maintain your code's human readibility)
</li><!-- --><li>.

another would be to adjust the amount of padding for each LI, there is no
issue when the LI has a padding-left of 10px. the side effect is that
you'll have a gap on the right, so you'll then have to add a DIV with the
attribute clear:both and give the containing UL the purple background.

also, if you give the UL padding: 0 you wouldn't need a margin-left of
-40px.
