mac keyboard backspace

[newhue]

hi, my ole mac moved on, and my new mac has this metro uselo keyboard that are found on MacBooks. I know its change but this key board is also crap.
Just wondering if I have upgraded to a 2 or possibly 3 key command to create a backspace. By backspace I mean the curser draws the words in from the right, not deletes to the left.

solved the problem, google didn't but an old school keyboard did.

you got a good run out of the old Mac. Does the new imac have a dvd drive?

So you know about the function delete for backspace?

I have a Macbook Pro 2011 model and have often wondered out the missing backspace option/key. Is there a function or combination of keys to do the same thing?

Found out - use function and delete together - d'uoh!

no it doesn't. You have to buy the separate external Apple "Superdrive"......
