I agree totally except for 1 difference. The right option key would be alt,
and map the grave key, the one right above the tab key as incert. The
reason I do this, is it's not that far from the caps lock key witch is used
in laptop layout, and I don't like reaching across the board when I want to
close windows or applications with alt F4. JMO

this is where sharp keys is recommended as an application to set up your key
environment. this would be best used to map the applications key and the
insert key, though, by default the following key combination is Fn Enter
together followed by your key combo.
here's a suggested mapping.
on a macbook pro / macbook keyboard here's what I'd configure it to in sharp
keys.
Left Command > alt
Left Option > windows key
Left Control stays the same,
Fn stays the same
Right Command > Application Key
Right Option Key > Insert Key
These are what I use and would recommend for easy workflow.
sharp keys will help you set up key mapping by pressing the key you wish to
edit, then select the function you wish it to be applied to. after you've
done these keys, apply the changes and reboot either your VMWare instance or
bootcamp.

alt, windows,control, and applications key?
Can't seem to find that info anywhere.
Thanks in advance.
I also have an Itunes query.
I have a bunch of files on both iTunes on my mac and my iphone, which I want
to delete.
I deleted them from the mac. Next time I connected my iphone, those files
appeared again.
How do I wipe them out permanently?
Thanks in advance.************
