It is also colloqially known as 'Three-Fingered-Salute' right? And beyond doubts, it is a great tribute to David Bradley(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Bradley_%28engineer%29[^]). :) Wiki Page on C+A+D: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control-Alt-Delete[^]

That Remote Desktop feature is quite cool.

Hey, Thanks for the info. I have been using two flat panel monitors at my workplace for around 2 years, did not know that was called as "windows multimonitoring". Mr. Gates uses three monitors for daily work(checking emails), if I am not wrong.

I use only that all day since my servers are geographically scattered across. :-D

Multimonitoring means that only one PC (and mouse and keyboard) makes the work on all monitors. So you can move one window to the other monitor. I like it because I can move the non-liked stuff to the secondary screen.:-O

I love the Space cadet pinball most. (from NT 4.0)

But the remote image rendering is quite slow with high graphics and other resources sharing ebabled.

I find the mouse pointer to be the most useful feature in Windows, it is also my favorite.

Just love it when I copy a couple of dozens of files and find that some are already in the destination and when asking to keep or replace, "No to all" is not between the choices!

You have a good versatile shutdown command. shutdown -i has a friendly GUI also.

I agree. Everyone in my office uses two monitors and it really increases productivity. And unlike a lot of MS crap, it always just works. I've never had an issue with it.

I didn't get any requirements for the signature

Whats your love with windows..?

My love with Windows? As opposed to what other OS's lack? I don't know other OS's too well but as a programmer I find the System Tray quite useful in order to make discretely running programs/services easily available and configurable by the user.

Somehow they missed that feature on my majorly screwed up XP system. It can take 3 to 15 minutes for a restart depending on its mood.
