You dont need manuals for anything these days, just let geeks work it out and ask them.
ask google 'where is the hash key on a mac' and the first answer is...

Where's the £ sign then?
shift 3? like in the real world?
Fair point, google in the future 🙂
Where's the ~ sign?
On the key that shows the ~ perhaps?
You mean the one with the # on it?
Where's the ¬ key?
Now I think about it, what on earth is a ¬ ?
I want to know wtf is § used for?

Who gives a damn where the characters are when you look so damn cool using your mac/iphone/ipod etc etc. Practicality can sod right off!
Pieface, did you buy your macbook in Britain?

Perfectly practical, just hold a key to display the alternative characters, like this: ?ž????ërt??û¥?$¿
And then there are the alternative language keyboards available in iOS, like Cherokee.
Easy peasy. But then I find the Windows GUI horribly clunky and unintuitive, and the spellcheck in iOS is superb.
But I can only speak as someone who's used Macs since 1995, before people thought there was anything cool about computers, so what do I know.
@Timwillows If you open system preferences and select the Language and Text preference pane. This has 4 tabs within it, select the Input tab this will allow you to select which languages your keyboard will use. Make sure British has a tick against it. Bottom right there is another box to tick "Show Input Menu in Menu Bar.
This will put a little Union Flag in the menu bar at the top of the screen. This has the Character Viewer and Keyboard viewer in it.
The keyboard viewer puts a window on screen that shows what pressing alt/control/shift modifies the key to.
The character viewer gives you things like stars and arrows to insert into text.??
