Get back your flip 3d shortcut in windows 7

Flip 3d is the main reason that i have shifted from windows xp to windows Vista i was very much impressed by this 3d effect.Even my friends came to my house to see this effect.For guys who never heard about this Flip3d.It is a enhancement made to Alt+tab  to switch between different windows lying on the taskbar  .
