On my MacBook the manpages scroll hellishly slow and there are no "Page Down" keys (maybe there is some key combo? I don't know). I end up googling for the manpages on the web instead most of the time...
On the MacBooks I've seen, Page Up/Down is usually Fn+Up Arrow/Fn+Down Arrow. I don't know if this is implemented in software or hardware, though, so if you're running *nix, you might be out of luck.
