Another way to exit if the mouse dies

In a previous tip I gave a way to bring up the start menu and to either exit or reboot using keyboard entries. If there are no programs open, there is an even quicker keyboard shortcut. Press Alt+F4 (F4 is a function key) to bring up the Shutdown menu and then enter “u” (no quotes”) to turn off the computer. To reboot enter “r” instead.

If programs are open, two successive applications of Alt+F4 can be used.
