Not only that, he's just wrong when he says that you can't launch from the taskbar. Unlike the old taskbar, it isn't just for open apps. You can drag your favorite apps from the Start menu to the taskbar, then launch from there, access jump lists, etc. This is why the old QuickLaunch taskbar is turned off by default. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
