On Win2K pro and Win98, all you do is hit Alt-Printscreen and a bitmap
image of the window with focus is copied to the clipboard. You can
then paste it into your favorite image editing program. Photoshop
knows what is on the clipboard so when you create a "new" file, the
default size exactly matches the clipboard image.

(Just Printscreen copies the entire screen to the clipboard)
