Um... opening the lid? Seriously, no love for us notebook-using folks?

I guess I have to vote for pressing the shift key, since that's what I do on my work desktop. I know that waking up the box from sleep will not propagate the keystroke, but since I set my display to sleep earlier than the rest of the box (and therefore, the keyboard is still active input), I got in the habit of using 'Shift'.

I'd use the mouse, but have gotten to the point where I rarely use it anymore... GIMP and games, pretty much.
