Zooming in on Mac OS X screen


One of the cool Jedi Master Mac tricks I learned a while ago that no one seems to know is the ZOOM.
1) Hold the [ctrl] key
2) Slide two fingers up the trackpad

Once you're zoomed to the place you want, let go of [ctrl] and use one finger to pan around the screen. It's kind of like having a glass magnifying loupe on an old-fashioned light table. Not useful all the time. But pretty cool for certain things nonetheless.
