I've sticked this topic for a few months.  With October 22 and the Holidays around the corner, I think it will be helpful to people new to Windows 7.

Be sure to check to sevenforums.com (the winner of The Best Windows Website Contest 2009 ) for updates.

Thanks, Nick. 

Curiously, after all these years I thought I would miss the show desktop as well.  Then I wondered whether it was worth duplicating a feature that is already available as part of the taskbar (located on the far right). Using it once or twice and it became second nature. :)  (Shawn has it illustrated  here: Show Desktop - Windows 7 Forums ).
