yep, ctrl + and ctrl - for a laptop.

if your video card has rotation enabling that's pretty fun too

cntrl+alt+arrow key

it's just a real bitch if all your monitors get out of wack and some are upside down or rotated 90 degrees

it's a fun way to mess with someone who leaves their shit unlocked when they go to lunch too

i just enabled rotation to play with it, cause i've never done it with dual monitors.

one monitor was upside down, the other was rotated 90 degrees. that was a bitch to straighten out.

^ ctrl + alt + "-" or "+"
