Vista "Tweak" that's worth sharing.

Gees, I wish I had thought of this. I'm passing it on. I think I got it
from ZD Net. I'm not sure. Go figure. )

I've been using it for a while, and it just gets better.

"Speaking of "iconizing," Windows 7 uses nothing but icons on the taskbar,
even for programs that are currently running. If you like the idea of doing
away with the text that traditionally accompanies taskbar program icons, a
simple Registry tweak will make it happen.
1. Click Start, type regedit, and press Enter.
2. Find and click the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics
value.
3. In the right pane, right-click in an open space and choose New, String
Value.
4. Name the new string MinWidth, and then set the value to -255.
5. Exit the Registry Editor, and restart your system.

Presto! Now you'll have only icons in your taskbar. If you don't like the
look after all, return to the Registry and delete the newly created entry."

So, whatdayathink? )

Wow.

That's what you think?

I'm smiling.

Why?

 

[Scrivener]

Gees.

How many people out there disagree?

To those who don't across our Country/Continent: Oh, well.

It's not often I get angry with those who are less of intellect than I
think.

I apologize.

I bet you wish you had a real functioning brain!

You're just jealous because he has more than a dozen functioning brain
cells.
You only have 1 left and it is stuck to your Vista DVD.

I wonder what your 92 year old great grandson says about you.

You memory is failing....but, that happens when your one brain cell is full.
