One item that always annoyed me was the 2 taskbars...why is that necessary? all the default panels fit nicely on one taskbar, even on resolution as low as 800X600 (the panel showing open tasks needed tweaking to set minimum to 100 as opposed to 300, but that was only an issue when rearranging the panels to get rid of the unnecessary [and annoying] second panel)

  Interesting subject matter that pertains to our current debate.

      What is the point? Criticism cannot be based on individual taste. If 
      you have a problem with the artworks articulate (that you dont like it
      is not an argument) it rather than just throw phrases around that you
      dont even know their meanings.
