    I checked out a MBP yesterday, I'm interested in iOS programming, and I found I have a love hate relationship with the keyboard.

    I love the QWERTY layout, it fit really well compared to the cramped layouts used by non-macs. However. What do you guys use for PageUp, PageDown, Home and End? I can't imagine coding without those keys.

    Thanks

    Home: < command> + arrow key up
    End: < command> + arrow key down
    Page Up: < option>+arrow key up
    Page Down: < option>+arrow key down

    There are no dedicated keys for this.

    I assume MBR = MBP (Macbook Pro)?
