I would recommend switching the behavior of the fn key (in the  
Keyboard preference pane "Use the F1-F12 key to control software  
features"). I often use F1-F12 with modifiers, and not having to  
think about the order in which I have to hit keys is nice. The price  
is that it's less convenient to use the associated features, but I  
don't find it too bad.
