Re: PC World/Apple Keyboard
Tsk, PCW store staff... Don't get me started. The techs in the clinic are sound but there are a fair few muppets amongst the salesmen as well as some OK ones.

Exactly. One of my main griped!. Not nice, if you spend a lot of your time writing LISP code 
(btw, it doesn't have an 'end' key either)

Yes... perticularly if you use a pc keyboard with the mac..
I managed to download a keymap config to my mac mini "windows - british" that swaps those 2 around (can't remember where i got it from now) however certian apps seem to insist on changing it back to English - UK even though i set the "windows - britsh to the deafult"
