Games That I Missed@82mhz The T41 was an excellent laptop. My spouse used one for 8 years, and only stopped because it was stolen.
Control-Esc is the key shortcut for the Windows menu, if a keyboard doesn't have a Windows key.

It's a nice machine indeed! Too bad it was stolen...
Thanks for the hint with ctrl-esc! No big deal that the key is missing, but I find it kind of baffling that it isn't there on a computer made for Windows XP.

@82mhz My unfounded suspicion is that IBM was still annoyed that Microsoft dropped out of the OS/2 project, and omitted the Windows key out of pique.

That doesn't sound far fetched at all 😄
