Is there any key combination that does NOT involve the Windows Key
that will minimize all windows and reveal the desktop? Win+D would
be the best solution of course, unless like me your keyboard does
not have a Win key.


Keyboards are cheap, is there some reason you don't want to replace
your present keyboard?

Yes, there is, and I discussed it elsewhere in this thread. In
short, the keyboard I would want is *not* cheap, and I already
have an excellent keyboard that I like except for its lack of a
Win key.

Sorry, I missed that before. The IBM keyboards are still made, some
with the Win Key and they are very uncheap!

I prefer them myself but here's the good news, my stock cheap HP keyboard,
model KU0841, PN 505080-371 has almost the same feel and click as the IBM and is very inexpensive on Ebay:

I'm currently using it in preference to the genuine IBM clicky type.

As always, your mileage may vary..
