* To take a picture of the whole screen, press Command-Shift-3.
* To take a picture of part of the screen, press Command-Shift-4, then drag to select the area you want in the picture.
* To take a picture of a window, the menu bar, the Dock, or other area, press Command-Shift-4, then press the Space bar. Move the pointer over the area you want so that it's highlighted, then click. (If you decide you want to drag to select the area, press the Space bar again.)
* If you press Command-Shift-4 and decide you don't want to take the screen shot, press the Escape key.
* Screen shots are saved as PDF files on the desktop. If you want to put the screen shot in the Clipboard, rather than create a file, hold down the Control key when you press the other keys. You can then paste the picture into a document.

If your running OSX you can also use Grab which lets you choose what you want to grab.
You can either grab a full screen, a selected window or select an area manually.

So many grabbing options, so little time. All us PC users get is the Print Screen button... as far as I know. Are there any other options?

Theres LOTS of add-on utilities for Mac and Windows that do all sorts of extra stuff such as video capture and auto-scrolling capture of really long web pages... and all sorts of options for file formats and where you wat to save the files and custom keyboard shortcuts...and ..... see download.com or versiontracker.com
