Coming back into the office and using a non-laptop keyboard with a non-Mac OS X system is screwing with my predilection for keyboard shortcuts. I keep trying to hit [Apple key]->R to reload web pages (which means I keep hitting [Alt]->R, which does nothing in IE under XP), and I keep reaching for the [Fn] key in order to use the arrow keys to page up and down. Argh.

Oh, just wait till you try to raise or lower the volume or monitor brightness, or eject a CD ;)
I don't know what's worse, making shortcut mistakes while at work on a peecee or making them at home on my mac (hitting ctrl for everything instead of cmd)

I do that all the time. Damn those PC users.

I have a Mac keyboard on my PC at work and then on my iMac at home. I always get messed up since the Option key is the alt key on the PC but then the option key doesn't do much on the iMac but I always try to use it to switch between screens....
