Being a pack-rat, i have several keyboards at home, both working as well as 
broken.
I just did a count and i have ten keyboards at home, including the two that are 
currently in use, but not counting the Mac keyboards.
On all of the Mac keyboards that i have (from Mac128+ and up) and on most of 
the (8-bit) home computers, that key *is* called Return.
However, on nine out of my ten PC keyboards, the big key (to call it that) has 
"Enter" printed on it, but never "Return". One of the keyboards just has an 
arrow printed on the key.

Therefore i submit that calling a key "Return" when it usually has
"Enter" printed on it, is confusing for users. Especially to new users
who may never have heard of such a thing as a "Return" key.
