Well, I always peel bananas from the tip, I peel oranges usually from the 
stem end (in one continuous peel if possible), and prepare apples 
according to the procedure given in La Technique.

Speaking of Apples, I find that Rendezvous, the Mac version of zeroconf, 
is just so great that I would like to set up a printer connected to a 
Linux box to work in the same (mixed) network transparently as well.  Has 
anybody around here done this yet?  There's stuff on the web about it, to 
be sure, but I'd be happy to hear any local lore.
