Windows 7 Keyboard Shortcuts

Here's a list of the newest keyboard shortcuts for Windows 7. The best ones (in my opinion) are the ability to use the arrow keys to control the new Windows Snap feature. The keyboard shortcuts for Windows Snap are especially useful if you have more than one monitor since by dragging the windows you can only snap them to the far left or right. With the Windows 7 keyboard shortcuts you can place snapped windows on the left or right of any monitor.
