Pressing PrintScreen by itself copies the entire screen to the clipboard, whereas pressing Alt-PrintScreen copies just the active window to the clipboard.

Just depends on what you want to do...

Why? XP does italready with the Priint Screen button for a screen shot, and Alt + Print Screen for a screen grab of the current (active) window.
