Suggestions for keyboard shortcuts VS + Resharper on Mac

I just updated the Macbook Pro as my development machine, but still mostly develop .Net applications with Visual Studio and Resharper (via VMWare Fusion). By far, the biggest obstacle that I encounter is getting used to changing the keyboard layout (for example, I can’t Alt+ Insert). Do any of you Windows-on-Mac veterans have any suggestions for relieving pain during the transition (without switching to an external keyboard)? Do you change mappings using the VMWare keyboard settings? Or are you using something like AutoHotkey?

Any other tips for developing Windows for Mac newb?

It seems that I can manage in about 4 different situations (vi, Emacs, Mac, Windows).

If I am learning a new IDE (as I was recently with IntelliJ IDEA), and there is a key that I cannot easily print, I usually redirect it to the key that I'm used to, from a different situation; therefore, for example, for IDEs that use function keys to initiate compilation / debugging, I redirect them to the equivalents of the Xcode debugging keyboard. This reduces the number of independent keyboard layouts I need to know (and, IMO, is an improvement, I find the mnemonic equivalents easier to remember).
