Window Snapping for Windows Vista and XP

[hey_moe]

Windows 7 includes the new Aero Snap feature that allows you to easily work with multiple windows at once by neatly sizing both windows automatically. For Windows Vista (http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/#) and XP users a cool utility called FreeSnap will provide much of the same functionality with a exhaustive list of keyboard (http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/#) shortcuts.

Once you have FreeSnap installed and running you will have the following keyboard shortcuts available to you:

Win key + Up Arrow – Snap top

Win key + Left arrow – Snap left
Win key + Right arrow – Snap right
Win key + Home - Move to top-left corner

I am a real 'freak' for shortcuts. Sitting in front of the computer all day every day, having short cuts really cuts down on alot of time. This should be pretty interesting.
