13/03/2010
Mac OS comes with in built short cut keys similar to the Windows Print Screen button system.
Its a bit harder to use but a lot more flexible.
There are 3 different types of screenshots you can take using the shortcuts.
1. Capture the entire desktop
Apple ( Command ) Key + Shift + 3
2. Use your mouse to select a region of your desktop
Apple ( Command ) Key + Shift + 4
Follow this key combination by selecting the region you wish to capture with your mouse
3. Capture a specific window
Apple ( Command ) Key + Shift + 4 followed by Spacebar then use your mouse to select the window to capture
All these commands save the screenshots do your desktop with the current date and time
