I usually only like to have one Panel at the top with what I need on it. I find having two a waste of screen space, especially on sub 17" screens.... I also don't like the Window List. I can usually remember what apps I have open, or just use the Workplace Switcher to move between them :)

I like KISS :D

Which graphics chip are you using for the water plugin thingy on F10. If its intel what versions of X stack you using.

They don't actually have them in stock and we didn't find that out till after we'd paid! :mad: The way they get to sell them so cheap is to collect a bunch of orders from people then order them from the distributor! It won't come till about the 22nd! They should at least tell people up-front how they work, if I were desperate for a monitor I'd be really angry!

They have three or 4 small shops all selling different items (Monitors in one, TVs in another, etc) But their online store is cheaper than going up to the store and paying cash for it. I found that out when I bought something else from them in the store!
