lol, well I've never used one of the new iMac keyboards myself, but from looking at them they do look a little different. Still, I'm sure you'll get used to it in no time.

Excellent! Hope you're enjoying Leopard. Out of curiosity, did you do an Upgrade, an Archive and Install, or a Clean Install? I would have recommended Clean Install but you probably did Upgrade.
No worries, though, the upgrade process is supposed to be really slick with Mac OS X.

It's 1024x768, and I'm glad to hear it.

On my MacBook Pro, the F1 and F2 keys control brightness. After looking at a screenshot online, yours do too. Try and ye shall be amazed.

Thank you all again for the help.
