The I.T Massive!

There are several enhancements to the Aero interface in Windows 7. The first one I am going to cover is Aero Shake. It's hard for me to demonstrate but rather easy to explain. If you have multiple windows open and you would like to minimize all but one of them, simply click and hold the window near the top (as long as it's not maximized) and move your pointer side to side. This will minimize all the other windows except the one you shook, you can restore all the windows again by repeating the shaking action. It's best to have a mouse to do this, I have found that the shake feature can be a little fiddly on my laptop's trackpad. There is how ever another way of doing the shake action which is simply to use Windows key plus the Home key. Here is some pics of Aero Shake in action.
