option-key = alt-key
command-key = Apple-key

Or even more simply:

Option is like ALT on a PC
and Command is like CTRL on a PC

Exactly, though the option-key is actually marked as "alt" even on a Mac keyboard since quite some time (even before the first USB-keyboard came out), so it's pretty useless to still call it "option"-key...except maybe to make the difference between PC and Mac. :cool:
