I find it advantageous having a list of currently open apps/docs, not just because it makes switching between apps easier but it also helps me keep track in my head of what I've got going on in the current workspace, and thus what I'm in the middle of doing. Good for productivity, that.
I think the main complains are the lack of that, and the added complexity and time to launch an app using only the mouse. 2009/12/18 Thomas Wood <[email protected]> > On Fri, 2009-12-18 at 23:50 +0000, Danté Ashton wrote: > > To be perfectly honest, I agree with the car analogy. > > I suppose my main problem with it is that I do seem to be taking a step > > back to take what I need. > > > > Or, to use another anology.
