Keystroke working

I was a bit surprised, reading about a person who wanted to switch users
without using the mouse, to see that nobody mentioned to him that one can do
anything in Windows with using a mouse at all. On the specific query he
had, Ctrl/Alt/Del will bring up options and you can cycle though them all
using the tab key and hit enter when the one you want is highlighted. The
easiest highlights to actually see are the ones around the little boxes at
the bottom corners, but the sharp eyed will be able to see that the menu
items (task manager, switch user etc.) are surrounded with a thin white line
when the highlight reaches them. This way of working was included for
laptop users who haven't got a tablet - or whatever they are called - that
oblong box at the bottom of the keyboard.

Apologies for not including this comment in the actual thread, but am not
sure how to show that thread at the moment. The general comment is worth
making anyway.
