Snipping Tool

...is something new as of Windows 7 which makes screen grabs a little less painful. Just type "snip" at the start menu to get it. When it appears pick "Rectangular Snip" from the "New" menu and then drag a rectangular area around the piece of the screen you wish to capture. After you drag, you will be able to save the image. This is a little bit easier than pressing Windows-PrtScn or some other combination with PrtScn and then going into Paint to do a Ctrl-V.
