I am anti-Windows key, so that narrows my options significantly. Plus, what is that key to the right of the space bar that looks like an arrow going into a mailbox? I see it on all the Windows keyboards, and since I like myself, I am a Mac user. What does it do?

Since I never run windows, I am simply anti-logo on the key. I usually appreciate having the key as a meta key. The other win key is the menu key. I believe it acts like a right-click in windows for context menus.
Apple is also known for having OS-specific keys (open and closed apple, command key).

What is an open and closed Apple? is that really old school or something? And the command key is pivital in the Mac OS, so I am fine with that.
By the way, I am writing this post in Windows via Boot Camp, funny huh?
iMav, what do you run, Ubuntu?

Yep. Old school Apple. :)

That's what I run on my thinkpad, yes. Gentoo has been my distro of choice for a while now...but I've grown accustomed to installing Ubuntu on my desktops out of shear laziness. Which speaks VOLUMES about Ubuntu. My 5 year old son could install it. (and HAS) :)

So have I, on a PowerMac G3. I run a live CD on my MacBook from time to time to get my fix, but I am thinking of getting VMWare fusion and running an install that way. I don't know how geeky I really need to be, with Mac, XP and Ubuntu on my laptop. That may be a little much. I would like to buy an older PC of some kind and run a Linux distro on it.
