Different people work in different ways, and have different requirements. I
run "every single app" maximised and ALT-TAB between them. I like it that
way, and some of my apps don't work properly any other way. Also, my Vaio
will only drive a 19' monitor at 800*600 in true colour. If someone else
wants to scatter small windows all over their desktop and spend lots of time
scrolling instead of ALT-TABbing, then that's fine by me :)
