There were a few mentioned in the comments that I did not know. Thanks for posting the link.

Wow, and I thought I was a shortcut god. I learned a couple tricks. This confirms for me why I will never, ever, own a Mac.

All were new to me! I wrote them down. See if I start using them, though.

Ctrl and the scroll wheel on your mouse also does the same thing. I prefer that method.

Wow! My geek status has been confirmed. I knew all (and regularly use most) of them, except for Control-Shift-T.

I've been using a laptop for 10+ years, without an external mouse, so I've grown to utilize keyboard shortcuts for almost everything. It's so much faster.

Oh yeah, there is one that I use almost every day in Internet Explorer. "Ctrl" + "Enter" eliminates the need for typing ".com" when you're entering a URL in the address bar. For example, in the explorer bar type "tugbbs" and then hit "Ctrl" and "Enter" at the same time. It automatically adds the dotcom extension and takes you to the site. My method is I use my left pinky to hit "Ctrl" and my right pinky to hit "Enter".

I have TUG on a favorites bar and do not have to type anything!! Just one click & I'm there!!:)

I did print the 9 suggestions though.
