how far have mac's made it into large installations?

[Rob Markovic]

It is generally faster to switch focus using the keyboard than using a
pointing device. No time consumed moving the hand to & from the device.

Some of the keyboard shortcuts that I find very useful are:

Command-Tab - for switching the active application window
Command-` - for switching the active window within an application (ie 2 FF
windows open with tabs in each)

Nice thing is if using RDP or VDI apps, Alt-Tab works nicely without
affecting the local host session.

Then there's spaces if you use it:
Ctrl-arrows - for navigating to the different spaces
Ctrl-number - also works for jumping directly to space 1,2 or 3, etc

If using just the laptop keyb, there is no backspace key, but using the
delete key with the fn key gets the job done.

Command-arrows do some nice things with the cursor position in most apps,
like home/end keys would, since the laptop keyboard doesn't have those keys.

Alt-arrows jump the cursor a word at a time.
