CTRL-F2 on Mac OS. I just try to remember the individual keystroke shortcuts as that's obviously the fastest of all.

Can you even create a new Folder in Explorer without the mouse? That one used to bug the hell out of me.

I happen to think that keyboard use is one area where Mac OS completely rocks Windows.

Here are some examples in a keyboard nav primer for both OSes.
