I hope this is in the correct section, if not, please be gentle. ;)
I have OS X running on my blueberry iMac.. Hence, I have the older style iMac keyboard without volume control keys.. Is there a way to control the volume with this keyboard? Maybe a combination of keys, or remapping the seemingly useless F keys..?

I don't think you can, the only way you would be able to is the menu bar controller. The reason for this is because the original iMac was made when Apple was still on OS 9 which didn't have the volume controlling abilities from the keyboard.

You can probably use Menuet or Quicksilver to program keys to change the volume...

Heh.. Got on Ebay looking for a better keyboard yesterday, ended up with a Mac Mini that came with a wireless keyboard. Should solve all my problems. ;) Thanks for the feedback guys.
