the hardest thing for Win users is the key commands. Apple-C instead of Control-C for copy.. that type of thing. I looked at the Keyboard Shortcuts pane of the prefs, but don't see any way to make it use the control key instead of the Apple key. Can it be done?

Macs are not windows machines. If you're going to spend all your time trying to make a Mac look like a Windows computer you might as well have got a Windows computer to start with.


If they are to use Mac they'll have to be prepared to do things the Mac way instead of the Windows way. However, all menus actually show what keys to use to get the same result. So if someone wants to know what keys to press to do the things in the 'Edit' menu all they have to do is click on that menu and look at it. Next to each item it shows what keys to press.
