    95% of the time, mine is "regedit". The rest of the time, it's "cmd". OK, it's a stupid post Marc Help! I'm an AI running around in someone's f*cked up universe simulator.

My colleague and I are what he calls "command-line Windows users", going by some of what's in my current list: c:\windows c:\Program Files desktop (This is really useful when you have lots of stuff open!) calc cmd charmap devmgmt.msc compmgmt.msc regedit winword Win+R is really useful, you see. I prefer the Windows command line to the various Unix ones (I'm a heretic, obviously), as you can run just one command without needing to muck about with a terminal shell, and that's what you do 90% of the time. Now that's bound to cause some controversy! Windows having a better command-line than Unix?!? :-) -- Ian Darling

                          Yes and Yes. I use Remote Administrator to monitor/update/etc. our product on MANY remote units. When a problem occurs, I remote into the unit (File Transfer, Command Prompt, and sometimes full control) and do whatever is needed. The Windows Key doesn't go through Radmin so to bring up explorer on the remote machine I hit Start->Run->"cmd" usually. Most of my actions require a prompt. Then when I want an Explorer window I just type it in. I could never do without the good 'ol "DOS" prompt.
