FWIW, in my own case, about the only time I'm bitten by the switch is that I sometimes finding myself using `C-s' in Emacs as a reflex to save my work. Or vice versa: I hit `C-x C-s' in Framemaker and get the message "Nothing to cut". Oh, and sometimes I hit `C-v' to paste and end up going down a page in Emacs. But most of the time, even half-asleep on autopilot I get by OK. And for some reason I never seem to get tripped up by C-c, C-x, or C-z.
