Cascading Windows 7?

It's the same concept as alt+tab, but you press WINDOWS+tab. It's embarassing that I actually have a keyboard which has a windows key on it.

Lame, eh?

To me, it's a gimmick that I looked at once and I never, ever use - even at work.

For scrollback you can windows+shift+tab... or just use the scrollwheel, or just click on a window.

Pretty, but useless/inefficient. Kinda like DX10, but that wasn't pretty either - just useless and inefficient.
 
Good eye candy, but that's about it.
 
What are you talking about Heat? The windows key is actually very useful, especially at work.

I use win+e and win+l all the time.

These might be useful though:

Makes sense, I just never thought to search. It's a mouse click either way, but these might come in handy. I'll see if I can make myself use them :-D .

But anyway, I was talking about "3d alt+tab" specifically being useless...
