Ah....what can I say?

It *is* a Windows key on my keyboard, because it's a Microsoft ergonomic 
keyboard that was sent to me by Microsoft when I got name picked at 
random from sending in my registration for Windows 95 after the August 
24, 1995 launch.

Microsoft also sent some software (which I didn't use), and a very nice, 
lucite, 30-60-90 right triangle (3-D affair, with the base as the short 
leg of the triangle) that commemorated the launch of Windows 95.  I 
still use the keyboard and the lucite paperweight.

Now if Linux wanted to send me an ergonomic keyboard and penguin 
paperweight......  :)
