hello, you can unlock the taskbar and pull it to give it hight, then the
date will appear
(but that of course will make your taskbar fatter)
of course you could just click on the taskbar clock and the date pops up!
OR
you can use a 3rd party utility to make this work...

if you are geek enough I can tell you what to do if you want this...
I can make a vid tutorial and upload it..
See my taskbar (along with some other geeky features heheh)
