[QUOTE="Daz Fisher, post: 1183987, member: 192008"] Hi Guys, Just joined the forum and currently awaiting my Mac mini (approx 2 weeks to go) so that I can use the SDK to create some iphone/ipad apps. Just a little on my desk setup: I am running a Windows desktop and soon to be Mini Mac via a KVM switch onto an HP 23 inch monitor. Obviously this means using my existing mouse and keyboard. I apologise if it IS somewhere on the thread, but I promise I did search for the answer! I have read there are differences between Mac & PC and I understand the windows key /command key etc but am I right in thinking there are keys that respond in completely different manner? I refer to the '@' symbol and " (quote marks) ? I would like to use one keyboard and to be honest don't mind if I need to buy a new keyboard (open to recommendations), but want to know that the key I press is the key that will be used irrespective of whether I am on Windows desktop or Mac desktop. Great forum! Daz. [/QUOTE]
