Windows Keystrokes
So.... yeah... call me corny but this sorta stemmed from someone making a thread referring to the "busy server" and his excessive pressing of F5 to refresh the page and surprisingly a lot of folks didnt know about that.
So yeah... umm... im pretty keystroke savvy. are there any strokes that you guys use on a regular or not so regular that you'd like to share?
Alt+tab is my most often used. I used to use backspace to go back a page, but now my mouse has built in buttons on each side to go forwards or backwards a page. Lol
Bozzio for president.
ctrl + x, ctrl + c and ctrl + v.
Ctrl + Shift + Escape to access task manager
Ctrl + Esc to display start menu without hitting the windows button (for old school keyboards)
Windows Logo + D to minimize all windows and show the desktop
Windows Logo + Break to display system properties.
Windows Logo + R for the run utility.
Those are all I can think of off hand. I use quite a bit since I'm in the IT Biz

Life is a thought, think about it.
if you are using windows vista.
You should have quick start icons right beside your start menu button.
Hit:
windows key + 1 to start the first one
windows key + 2 to start the second one
windows key + 3 to start the third one
...etc.
also.
Hit Ctrl + Shift + Esc to bring up the task manager.
(can do it with one hand)
Alternate to Ctrl + Alt + Del.
select all icons on desktop + enter key
