I actually have an original IBM Model M. Manufacture date of July 22nd, 1987. And I use Windows on a regular basis. Yet, I get by without the windows key quite well. About the only two shortcuts I ever used were WIN+E and WIN+R, for Explorer and Run. It's not as useful of a key as many people think it is. It's actually more beneficial to those with disabilities, such as low or impaired vision. -- Joshua Kinard Gentoo/MIPS ku...@gentoo.org 4096R/D25D95E3 2011-03-28 "The past tempts us, the present confuses us, the future frightens us.
