Windows Logo Key Shortcuts
Ever wonder what the Windows Logo Key on your keyboard was for?!

Press these and you'll get ...

• Logo key = Start menu
• Logo key + R = Run dialog box
• Logo key + M = Minimize all
• Logo key + SHIFT + M = Undo minimize all
• Logo key + F1 = Help
• Logo key + E = Windows Explorer
• Logo key + F = Find files or folders
• Logo key + D = Minimizes all open windows and displays the desktop
• Logo key + CTRL + F = Find computer
• Logo key + CTRL + TAB = Moves focus from Start, to the Quick Launch toolbar, to the system tray (use RIGHT ARROW or LEFT ARROW to move focus to items on the Quick Launch toolbar and the system tray)
• Logo key + TAB = Cycle through taskbar buttons
• Logo key + Break = System Properties dialog box

ctrl-alt-del doesn't work solely with windows. Linux can be customized to do that as well, the only exception is Windows is the only one that NEEDS to use it .
