Here's an MS article: everything you ever wanted to know about keyboard shortcuts!!

>>>>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!

>>>
>>>This is not just old keyboards that have these differences, but different ones. If you buy a new IBM keyboard, its key layout should be close to the old style (but with the windows keys).
>>>
>>>BTW, if the windows keyboard just gets in your way, you haven't adapted to it yet. I use all 3 of the special windows key indispensably. My hands hardly ever leave the keyboard.

>>Erik, (a man after my own heart)

>>I know about the Windows key, and the menu key (are there combinations for the menu key?) but what is the 3rd key you mention?

>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?
