<< Windows-D - Show desktop >>
it would appear WinKey+D and WinKey+M do the same thing.. hmmm... >>
Theres a difference.
Winkey+D is show Desktop. Winkey+M is minimize everything.
To discover the difference, try doing them two times in a row.
D will bring back all your windows on the second try. M will do nothing.

Win2K includes a feature that lets you crash the OS by holding the right
Ctrl key and pressing the Scroll Lock key twice. To enable this feature,perform
the following steps:
Start regedit.exe.
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\i8042prt\Parameters.
From the Edit menu, select New, DWORD.
Enter a name of CrashOnCtrlScroll, and press Enter.
Double-click the new value, and set it to any nonzero value (e.g., 1).
Click OK.
Close regedit.
Reboot your system.
Now, when you hold the right Ctrl key and press the Scroll Lock key twice, the
system will crash and display a bug check code of MANUALLY_INITIATED_CRASH
(0xE2). This keystroke combination works in some situations where Ctrl+Alt+Del
has no effect.

Also, if you have window that won't minimize and is set to always on top, Win+M won't be able to hide it, but Win+D will.
