I use Expose with a mouse corner - for those of you who haven't seen
it, it zooms out all active windows allowing you to switch between
them very quickly - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expos%C3%A9_
(Mac_OS_X). I have too many apps running for Apple-Tab to be
effective and use Expose so much I'm quite annoyed when I'm on a
computer that doesn't have it. Clones are being created for Linux but
I haven't seen one working. You'll probably need a 2GB video card to
do this under Vista.
To launch applications, "Shift-Apple-A", type the first few letters
of the
application then "Apple - down arrow". 2 seconds usually. The
utilities
folder is accessible also, "Shift-Apple-U".
These only work with the Finder active though right? I've been using
Quicksilver http://quicksilver.blacktree.com/ which is like Spotlight
on steroids, and lets me find any app or document with a couple of
keystrokes.
cheers,
Peter.
