Keyboard Shortcuts for QuickLaunch Items in Vista

This is going to be a very short article, but the knowledge inside it is going to help you save a lot of your precious time. I usually keep my Quick Launch items as few as possible, but I know people having at least 10 of them, and quick access using the keyboard is an excellent thing to have...

The only reason that I missed to add this to my 9 Vista keyboard shortcuts list is the fact that I didn't find it anywhere, and despite the simplicity of these shortcuts... I didn't figure them out without any help, I must admit!
Now, let's drop anything else - here's the secret Windows key+1..0! Incredibly simple, isn't it? So, to launch the first item located in the Quick Launch bar, you have to use the Windows key+1, Windows key+2 for the second one (from left to right), and so on.
In the meantime, I'll keep searching for a keyboard path to the item number 11 and above from the Quick Launch bar, but for now, I hope today's info is going to be as interesting for you, as it was for me discovering it!
