Whoops, C-w is close-buffer; save is C-s.

Other keys that have moved:

C-space to M-space
C-n to M-k
C-p to M-i
C-f to M-l (lowercase L)
C-b to M-j
C-s to M-; (M-; to M-')
C-r to M-S-;

These seem reasonable, though radically different from what an Emacs user is
used to... but for someone new to Emacs, they are much better than the Emacs
defaults, in my opinion. My fingers will need some retraining, though :)
