err... this seems a bit uncalled for, but maybe that is just me.

Furthermore I don't think the gripe is with the funtionality of the key in Linux, I think the isue is weather such a key is necissary at all considering how close it is to the space bar and other frequently used keys.

Imagine typing quicklu and having your finger slip. Even having the program menu maped to the key in Linux would suck as much as the results usualy seen in windoze.

Couple of ideas...

1) Pop the key off the keyboard, dump a little epoxy in the hole, replace key. Use a red magic marker and draw a red circle with a red slash through it over the Win logo.

2) Write a script that sends a random Microsoft Sucks SPAM message to William.Gates@microsoft.com with a removeme link that points to www.fuckmicrosoft.com, then remap your KDE keyboard to run the script every time you "accidentally" press the "Win" key.

writing a script that sends SPAM to bill gates isnt a bad idea... but i would would have to set-up an e-mail account.
Or i could set it up to use tripod's auto-mailer that you have access to when you have an account with them, that way billy couldnt track me (easily). Its difficult (nothing is impossible) to block the auto-mailer, because tripod lets you disguise the mail from whatever e-mail address you want (ie. use a different e-mail every time).
