Windows 7 Keyboard Shortcuts List

Update: Here’s one we did earlier

Microsoft has added quite a few new keyboard shortcuts to their upcoming Windows 7 operating system. Michael Pietroforte over at the 4 Sysops website was nice enough to create a list of all keyboard shortcuts that are available in Windows 7. The most interesting part of the list are the new keyboard shortcuts that have been exclusively created for Windows 7. Several of the new Windows 7 shortcuts make working with windows in Windows 7 easier. It is for example possible to minimize or maximize windows with a keyboard shortcut, clear all windows but the active one, dock windows to a side of the computer monitor or move them to an adjacent monitor.
