Restore the OS 9 function keys

I switched to OS X two days ago and got crazy when I found myself pressing the function keys to reveal my app actions -- I feel invalid without F1-F12 in Photoshop and Flash. I was searching the web for that issue but couldn't find any solution (not even the problem mentioned...) Well, I finally found one...
Boot into OS 9, open the Classic control panel "Keyboard" and change the prefs here. Booting back into OS X, the function keys are functions keys again! Woohoo!
[Editor's note: I'm almost positive we had published something along these lines at some point in time, but I can't seem to find it at the moment...so apologies in advance if this is a duplicate!]
