Always handy to have a list of all the special key sequences available when starting a Mac.
There’s another book on learning Unix for old-school Mac users.
Over at inessential.org, Brent plays with the ‘Give a Man a fish…’ parable. Give Scott McNealy a fish, and he’ll rant about how it’s all Microsoft’s fault. But teach Scott McNealy to fish-and he’ll rant about how it’s all Microsoft’s fault.
