MacBook Pro Missing Keys

Yesterday my MacBook arrived and I have to say I am very happy with it. There is just one big drawback, or let’s better say nuisance I have to get used to, namely the keyboard!

This is how to type the following keys:

‘{’ -> ALT+8
‘}’ -> ALT+9
’|’ -> ALT+7
‘[’ -> ALT+5
‘]’ -> ALT+6
’\’ -> ALT+SHIFT+7
’~’ -> ALT+n

If you are having trouble finding a key just try ALT SHIFT ‘some key on your keyboard’. The ‘Enter’ key is also waaaay to small and the control key is at a very position as well. And whatever is the combination for the @ sign on a german standard pc keyboard has the semantics of ‘close this application’ in MacOS X – that results in some funny mistakes ;-)
