[QUOTE="Buzzard2010, post: 1183993, member: 176415"] Welcome to Mac-Forums Daz, As for the @ and " all that is different is that they are the other way around. So when you try to get the @ symbol it is actually the " symbol and vice-versa. Another difference is for example when you want to copy and paste, in windows you do a ctrl+c then ctrl+v , on the mac keyboard it is cmd+c then cmd+v not too sure how this will work on a "windows" keyboard but the best thing to do is to play around with it until you get used to the changes and you know where the combinations are. You could of course get a mac keyboard for the mini, a wired one isn't too much really at around $49.00 in the US or £40 in the UK But see how you get on first and then think whether you need an actual Apple keyboard or not. Hope this helps a little. - Simon [/QUOTE]
