Vista Trick: Open Command Window from Explorer

   Anyone remember the XP Power toy that would allow you to right-click a directory in Windows Explorer and open a command prompt from that location? Well here's a nifty little Vista trick I picked up today that not only provides the same solution the Power Toy did, but is also built right into the OS. Simply locate the directory you want to open in a compand prompt, hold down the Shift key and then right click. You will get one new option in the dialogue box that says "Open Command Window Here". Viola!
