My beige G3 keyboard does have "Print Screen" printed on the F13 key,
but it doesn't do anything unless I'm using Virtual PC Windoze
emulation.

There could well be third-party software that lets you set the F13 /
Print Screen key (or any other key you want) as the screen capture
button.

Shift-Command / Shift-Option-Command 3 and 4 are easy enough to
remember ... if you use them often enough to need them, like most other
keyboard shortcuts once you run out of obvious ones.

The real issue was that Apple changed the file format and in early
versions of Mac OS X you're stuck with silly PDF.  :-(

Windoze's Print Screen is more hopeless since all it does is copy the
entire screen to the clipboard (a crash two seconds later and you'll
have to redo it all again), although Microsoft did add extra features
in later versions of Windoze.
