Remote Computer Whacked? Launchy to the Rescue!

So, you've got a remote desktop connection that has gone haywire. Looks like explorer has hung up, and crashed.

For some reason you're on your Vista boot camped-MacBook so the Control+Alt+End key combination is nonexistent. You were smart enough to install Launchy 'cuz it rokks and 'cuz Mike Duncan said so. What do you do?! Never fear... Launchy to the rescue!

Launchy
(Sexy new Launchy 2.0 interface.)

There are all sorts of hot features with Launchy besides opening applications. Searching google, calculations, weather, indexing... If you're like me, then you like to use your keyboard more than your rat mouse. (I wish I could get a MacBook type trackpad built into my MS ergonomic keyboard). Then I'd give that rodent to the ratatatCATs.

Now at version 2.0 all you need to do is a little Alt+Space action to bring up that beast. Type "explorer" to bring your desktop back from the dead and you're back in business. Baby.
