Όπως και στα Windows έτσι και στο Mac OS της Apple, το πληκτρολόγιο παίζει ζωτικό χαρακτήρα και κάνει τη ζωή μας πολύ πιο εύκολη και γρήγορη εάν φυσικά μάθουμε μερικές συντομεύσεις.
Here are the modifier key symbols you can see in Mac OS X menus:

(Option key) - "Alt" may also appear on this key

Press the key or key combination until the expected function occurs/appears (for example, hold Option during startup until Startup Manager appears, or Shift until "Safe Boot" appears).
