I have been using Leopard on a 1 Gz powerbook, which
is only a little faster than Apple's minimum requirements,
and I haven't been noticing any slowdowns or hanging
with iTunes. It does seem to take substantially longer
to start up than it did under Tiger, though.
As for force quitting, you don't have to use a key combination,
you can just select Force Quit... from the apple menu. The
key equivalent is Command-alt-escape.
If you want to know what some of those squiggles mean,
while in the finder, go to the help menu, type Symbols for
Special keys into the search, and select the help topic of that
name. The first time you do it, you may have wait a little
for all the symbols to show up, at least I did. The key ones
for most system functions are:
Shift: wide up arrow
Control: hat ( ^ )
Option: closest representation I can think of is -\= but
connect everything but the top part of the = to the \
command: clover
escape: arrow leaving a broken circle

It's not unusual for me to have to reboot. Force quit
isn't available (what's the key combination? I can't
decipher the squiggles except for the middle one)
