[QUOTE="Kash, post: 695665, member: 23444"] Or new users could, you know, learn the Mac way, which tends to be easier. And since the Mac way is generally easier, then I would propose Microsoft change its key combinations to the ones used in OS X. That way Windows users will feel right at home when switching, and those who decide to remain Windows users will have more logical and easier keyboard combinations. :D See how ludicrous that sounded? Oh, and btw, Apple isn't having much trouble getting marketshare, with it having just increased sales by 38%. Changing some key combinations to accommodate people who can't be bothered to learn new things isn't going to increase sales, and if it is, do you really want these kind of people to become Mac users? Can't you just imagine what else they'll be screaming for Apple to change to make OS X more like Windows under the guise of making the transition easier? So a simple key combination change ends up with Apple releasing OS 11 to look and work exactly like Windows... [/QUOTE]
