On a Mac, it works mostly the same, but you use option instead of control.
Not all applications respond the same, and you usually need some text to select for this to be interesting.
Also, scroll lock is useful on the console of a unix PC, and pause/break can be used to send a break to a serial terminal.

But seriously, I think I use pretty much all of these regularly except for scroll lock and that button that simulates a right click. There's an entire set of commands that the Windows key can be used in conjunction with that are really useful:(using wk for Windows key)wk+r: Run dialogwk+e: New windows explorer windowwk+pause: System Properties
and those are just a few of the amazing things you can do with a modern keyboard. Next week, I'll explore the mythical "apple" key on Macs.
