  • [whine whine whinge]

    Dammit. Windows is unuseable without a Windows Key. I can't do Win+E. I can't do Win+M.

    And I miss my Linux multiple desktops. The Microsoft PowerToy sucks. Clicking on an app's taskbar button should switch to the desktop with that app, not move it to the current desktop. Dammit.

    I never, ever use the Windows key, and I can use windows nonetheless.

        Pushing my scroll button on the mouse shows my desktop, quite handy if I may say so myself.

            I use to to shut down windows (in the English version):

            Windows -> U -> U

            Very fast.
            (and no risk of it going into standby which locks my system completely.)

              I'd be on Linux if only my girlfriend would come by and fix my wireless internet. I am not smart enough. Normally, ethernet cable suffices, but I am sick and bedridden right now, and therefore consigned to wireless.

                Well, I'm a fan of Alt+F4

                  I missssss her.

                  Being sick sucks. Except for the part where you skip work for a day and stay in bed. But being sick sucks.

                      Ah, but that's for closing windows, not for shutting down windows.

                        I think that Windows will shut down if you hit alt+f4 enough. Or at least give you the right dialogue box.

                          Yup.

                          I press Alt+F4 a few times, it makes me feel powerful

                            Another reason Windows sucks: I keep selecting text in Gaim and middle-clicking elsewhere and the text isn't pasting. Dammit. I want my two Linux clipboards.

                              I don't think I've ever pressed the windows key on purpose.

                              It's really annoying if you accidently press it though...
