engineers most likely do not attend this website, there is little point. As said before by somebody else you can change the shortcut. &gt;System Preferences&gt;Keyboard & Mouse&gt;Keyboard Shortcuts&gt; after pressing 3 buttons and then hearing the little camera shutter sound it puts the freakin' screen cap into a file that sits on my desktop. I then have to open an email and attatch the screen cap file into it. this is a HUGE hassle. Why can't you just command v it into whatever doc/email i'm working with. And on a PC I've never ever had to open Paint in order to do any kind of screen print. On a PC you hit the print screen button and then control v it anywhere you want! So...if you just want to capture a part of your screen on a PC you just use the print screen button, open Paint, paste the entire screen into Paint, then select the Select option and select the portion that you want to copy, then use the Ctrl+C keys and your done. Compared to the Mac way of Shift+Command+4 (your cursor turns into a crosshair) Hold down control (to copy to the clipboard rather than to a file) and select the portion of the screen you want to copy...and you done. I use a PC at work and a Mac at home. Trust me, once you learn the key strokes (come on, it's only 3 keys, 4 if you copy) it's much easier on a Mac. This
