>> Tom: One cool thing about Windows 7 is the docking affect you can stick windows to one side of the monitor or the other just by dragging them there and here's a quick tip for managing those windows faster with some keyboard shortcuts. Without even touching your mouse you can send a window to one side of the screen to the other press the windows key plus the left arrow to dock a window on the left side and windows key plus the right arrow to dock it on the right. If you keep pressing windows and an arrow key the windows will hop to the other side then back to an undocked state. You'll notice if you drag a window out of a docked position it stays in that weird vertical size. Windows plus shift and the down arrow will restore the vertical size and windows shift and the up arrow will maximize a window just vertically. And windows plus up arrow maximizes a window, window plus down arrow minimizes. Those are just a few cool keyboard shortcuts for Windows 7, I'm Tom Merritt, CNET.com. ^E00:00:59
