Could Adobe recognize that many of your users are on PC's not just Mac.

Practically every video...tutorial...introduction is written by someone using a Mac. I use a PC and would greatly appreciate it if there were two videos made, one for PC and one for Mac. Often even the most well intentioned Mac instructor give the incorrect shortcut for the PC and you need to stop the video...Hit Google, look for the correct command...go through three or four to finally find the person who gave the full path to the command instead of "adjust the graphic preference".

Seriously...PC can do artistic too. If we could find all the buttons.

Can you give an example?

The only significant difference between PC and Mac is two modifier keys

Alt (PC) = Option (Mac)

Ctrl (PC) = Command (Mac)

Anything else you've found?

Just Shoot Me

What do you mean the incorrect shortcut? Do you mean keyboard shortcuts?

If I view tutorials I just convert what they say for a Mac to what I know the key to use on a Windows PC.

Ctrl on Win is the same as Command on a Mac.

But then the tutorials I have view do give the conversion. Like they will say you press Command + KEY, Ctrl on a Win pc.

That's not my experience. Perhaps you're not seeking out the right tutorials / instructors. I have no trouble finding tutorials that discuss keyboard shortcuts for both Mac and Win.
