  How do I change the default .pdf viewer on my mac?

  Easier than that: Right-click or ctrl-click, or click on a laptop's track pad while holding two fingers thereon. In the popup menu, you'll see "Open with". This lists possible apps. Now press the "option" key. The text will instead say "Always open with..." Presto chango. No muss, no annoying get info window.

  Which keyboard should I buy for my Mac PowerBook G4?

  The correct answer is: http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Natural-Ergo-Keyboard-4000/dp/B000A6PPOK This is your winner, the software is good, and the keyboard is mgnificently comfortable. There are days I think microsoft should give up writing software, at which they are mediocre, and focus on making input devices, at which they are gods striding the earth.

  How can I get OS X Finder to display ALL Finder windows with the same view every time?

  Have you tried PathFinder? My memory of finder foo is that you open the window, make it look the way you want, and close it right away, and it will stay that way. The only consistent view you can get is column view. Otherwise, I think you're out of luck. If you take the PathFinder route, open the PathFinder preferences, and select the "Browser" pane. The first option should let you set what folder is the default, and right under that, you can select the view. PathFinder will be consistent henceforth, and give you the behavior you want.
