Yes - and I have more than one app open at any one time.. and usually want to reference stuff I can see in the other windows. This isn't Windows where everyone maximises every window :) > So, I had been on the side of yeah whatever let's have them all.

I lived with NNW's widescreen view for about a week before I got so fed up with moving the massive window out of the way all the time and went back to the proper view. Part of this is because I only want to see a few items in the headline list: my current item and one or two above and below it. Again I have lots and lots of folders in NNW. According to MercuryMover, my NNW window is currently 1067 pixels wide and that's more than wide enough for me. Clearly I need to move to a "one task and one task only" mindset as that's the new black! Then I would only have one app open at a time and my computer would probably be faster :) Regards, Rob... _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list List help: http://lists.ranchero.com/listinfo.cgi/email-init-ranchero.com
