Maybe I'm the last person in the world to find this feature but its so cool, I play with it quite often. Its the Zoom feature on OS X. To turn it on, go to System Preferences and choose Universal Access. Turn on Zoom. Then whenever you want to use it, click opt-cmd-plus to zoom in (do it again if you want more zoom), or opt-cmd-minus to zoom back out. Then move your mouse to go anywhere you want on the screen. Not sure if it has any real use unless u have poor vision or are broadcasting to a room on a large screen but its fun to look at anyway.

It does have real uses! I use it when I'm demoing and creating instructional videos all the time.

You can never go wrong by doing the right thing.

4 out of 3 people have trouble with fractions.

There are three kinds of people, those who are good at math and those who aren't.

There are two kinds of computer users: those who have lost data and those who are about to — backup your Mac!
