  1. As a Mac user for a whole one week, I've mostly figured them out. I can see less technical people having trouble with them, however.

  2. Jeremy,

    Welcome to the Mac community, glad you were able to find us.

    I agree with you--I've been a Mac user for a few years now and I have them all down.

    However, I recall as a switcher I was a little confused by some of the symbols--especially when referenced without a legend or key.

  3. The majority of people know them, and for those who don't putting in a link at the bottom of each post that uses a glyph would be best. Something like this.
