Go Back and Forth Fast in Preview
If you're reading a PDF in Apple's Preview software, and you follow a bookmark or an internal link to move around within the PDF, you can quickly return to where you were by pressing the keyboard shortcut Command-[ (that's Command-Left Bracket). Or, you can choose Go > Back.
The command works iteratively, so you can go back to just the previously viewed page or if you issue the command again, to the page before that, and so on. There's also an equivalent Go > Forward (Command-]).

Info-Mac Archive Mirror Sites
Liam Breck <breck@zonker.ecs.umass.edu> passed on this list of Info-Mac mirror sites, FTP sites that carry more or less the same files as the main Info-Mac site. We recommend that Internet users use these mirror sites instead of the main site because <sumex-aim.stanford.edu> is having trouble handling the massive demand, so much so that it has become difficult for the Info-Mac moderators to manage the archive. If you know of a mirror site not listed here or would like to set up a new mirror site, please send email to <info-mac-request@sumex-aim.stanford.edu>.
Each entry in the list below contains (odd bits explained below):
Internet address Internet number archive directory #/#
contents access methods
organization, city, [state,] country
[notes about the site]
* Internet number
Try using this number if the Internet address doesn't work.
* #/#
The number of updates made to the mirror per number of days.
(1/1 is once a day, 1/14 is once every fourteen days.)
* Contents
ALL -- the site carries all directories in the archive.
RECENT -- the site carries only files added within the past year.
VERY-RECENT -- the site carries only files from the past few months.
