FWIW, here's Apple's list of OS X keyboard commands, including start-up. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=75459 My experience (on the 333 iMac) is not consistent with Apple's info. When my start-up disk is set to OS 9: Option key down at start-up results in OS 9 start-up. X key down at start-up results in OS 9 start-up. D key down at start-up results in OS X start-up. (Great tip!) When my start-up disk is set to OS X: Option key down at start-up results in OS X start-up. D key down at start-up results in OS X start-up.
