Haha, I have no idea.
I just Googled § on its own and came up with absolutely nothing. The only time that's ever happened to me before is when the thing I'm Googling doesn't exist - but this obviously does. |

but then ± gives no results either.
It actually looks like Google doesn't even recognise the fact that you've typed it. It just ignores it and tries to match any other words you've written. |

I'm surprised all of those need QT to run - I'd have put it down to something else. 
But if you need it, older versions are available from http://support.apple.com/downloads/#quicktime |

Apple decided that it was a symbol used so often, it required it's own key.
Uh... |

Yeah, and then they make it so you can only get to these keys by pressing 'alt' first:
¡#¢∞§¶ªº≠∑Ž®¥š^øπåß∂©˙∆˚¬
æ«Ω≈ç√∫~µ≤≥÷
I can understand not really needing to use Ω that often, but #? I use it daily.
Never used § apart from on here  |

| I guess it depends what field you work in people writing reports that quote sources, etc might use it alot (along with etc), while others won't use it at all... at least they're there. |

why does holding "ALT" then pressing "3636" on the keypad give you 4?
