Actually, it doesn't minimize all windows, it shows the desktop. There is a slight difference. When you maximize any window, all your former maximized/restored windows will open again. Window Key + M is actually the minimize all shortcut, however if an application has a dialog open, it will not minimize it.
windows key + D shows the desktop, Windows key + M minimizes all windows that don't have open dialog boxes.

Get the windows key + d mug.The best browser we will ever have. It features a series of cool function like automatic updates and better built-in antivirus. The OS supports 32GBs of RAM if you are running ultimate version. The cool aero theme and the file explorer makes it even better. It recked Windows Vista, the worst OS in the world except Windows 8. Sadly it had been discontinued by Microsoft and will no longer receive updates. Thank you for your support Windows 7!

Get the windows 69 mug.A fairly okay OS that seems to crash a lot more often when used by geeks and Linux zealots, especially those who claim that Windoze is soooooo easy to use. Well if it is easy to run, then you shouldn't have a problem running it in the first place.
Or could it be true that geeks truly are less intelligent than they claim they are after all?

A clean install does not mean just loading the fricking OS onto the computer. Any Windoze-using idiot knows that Windows 98 reboots a bunch of times before the system becomes operational, and requires the CD THROUGHOUT the ENTIRE installation process.

Get the windows 98 mug.An operating system known for its revolutionary ability to restart its OS shell and most of its services automatically and almost imperceptibly - without user's awareness and intervention, thus giving an appearence of being much more stable then its predecessors. Has to be installed with network cable plugged out, otherwise gets infected by all sorts of digital microorganisms even before its first run. Tries to connect to obscure destinations about 12 times during install process. Good for consumer-type individuals and large corporations where initial laziness well evolved into symbiosis of corruption and incompetence.
Wow - it's another patch tuesday! Let's go crazy and patch all our Windows XP production servers first!
