John,

Take a look at the arrow keys on your MacBook Pro. In addition to the directional arrows, they have words printed on them. Words like "home," "end," and "page." Those alternate functions are enabled by the fn key. Same deal with the little numbers printed on the U, I, O, etc. keys -- when you hold down the fn key, they work as a substitute for the numeric keypad.

Cheers,

- Darcy

Using PageUp/Down for anything but moving from one page to the other
seems to me to make little sense at all.

Hmmm. Those of us using laptops don't have Page Up/Down keys, but we do have one additional key that my add-on full keyboard does not have, an "fn" key ("Function"?), which when held down lets us move one page at a time (depending on the zoom in effect) just using the left and right arrow keys.

This is on a MacBook Pro, OS 10.4.10, Sib 4.1.5. Windows controls are obviously somewhat different.
