  Right. That turns off the backlight which saves a bunch of power. F2 to bring 
it back up again.

      Main problem I've had with using Windows keyboards on the Mac has not 
been connecting them but that the option and command keys get flipped. Normally 
from left to right on laptops it is function, control,option (alt), command but 
on windows keyboards they probably won't have the Function key and the 
command/option keys switch places. I think there is a way to remap those keys 
so the go back to their normal places but I eventually got tired of it and went 
with an Apple keyboard. To be clear, non-laptop Apple keyboards also lack the 
function key since that is usually for doing things like change the speaker 
volume or dim the screen. Speaking of which, you can get a lot more battery 
life out of your laptop if you turn the brightness all the way down by hitting 
F1 about 16 times.

        Hi List,
            I have a wireless that I'm using on several Windows computers. 
Wonder if this same model would be compatible with my  MacBrook, or will a 
specific model be needed?
