Items that end in an extension with .msc are Microsoft Management Console Snap-in's, but did you know that you can run most of these directly from either the RUN line or the Search Bar in Vista? My personal favorites to run in this fashion are the Device Manager, Event Viewer and the Disk Management Snap-ins..

Knowing the name of the Management Console Snap-in that you want to run rather then loading it through the UI or the MMC can save time and clicks.
Thanks!
