The "[Microsoft Key]" is that special key usually the second key over to the left of the space bar (the ALT key is usuallly between them).

  1. You mean something like control keys where N in New has an underscore under the "n" meaning if you hit Shift+n it will do New without having to go through the trouble for File-New. I learned how to make menu bars in programming class the other day, that's why I figured it would be good to bring it to attention.

    Also the Windows key, the flag symbol next to your Ctrl key, that opens the start menu. Microsoft always wants to make things easier for the user. Once Windows 98 came out, things did start getting a lot easier. On firefox you can use the "control keys", Ctrl+ to zoom in, likewise for Internet Explorer 8, I think, because I know 7 doesn't have it.
