Hi! I just wanted to share some of the Windows 7 shortcuts that I use a lot. Many of you probably know about them already, but anyways...

I'm talking about the arrow keys in combination with the Windows key:

Win+Left: Place current window on left half of screen (repeat to return window to original position).
Win+Right: Place current window on right half of screen (repeat to return window to original position).
Win+Up: Maximize current window.
Win+Down: Maximized windows are restored, restored windows are minimized.

And if you have dual monitors, these can come in handy (I just read about them myself :) )
Win+Shift+Left: Move current window to left monitor.
Win+Shift+Right: Move current window to right monitor.
