>>>I should look at the computer shows or e-bay for an old keyboard. The only problem might be the connector. On my last new computer here at work I tried to use my previous keyboard but the connector was just a little bit to big. Now I have to live with the / key on the left of the right shift key and it drives me crazy!

Sorry, I should have looked down at this keyboard. There are only two, bt I was getting confused with another keyboard I have that has special keys that let you define special functions (you can run any command line at the touch of a button). I don't know of any combinations for the menu key. Here are the ones I know for the window key though:

Key: Win Taskbar
Key + E = Explorer
Key + F = Find files
Key + R = Run
Key + Break = System Properties
Key + Ctrl + F = Find Computer
Key + M = Minimize all
Key + Shift + M = Undo minimize all

Are there more?
