One of the amazing things about OS X that I have noticed just recently, is that if you have multiple applications open on the same screen say ichat, safari and itunes, and they happy to be overlapping but all visible, you can move over the program with your cursor and scroll up and down on within the program without actually bringing it to the front. So if I have safari open in the front, but itunes is in the back and I want to see what the next couple of songs will be, i can just move the mouse over and scroll down without clicking. Awesome!
The question is... why don't all programs, in my case MS Word, utilize this function. Is this application specific or is it OS specific or a little of both? Does anyone know if MS Office 2008 will harness this feature?
Anyways, it was pretty awesome to figure this out even if every app doesn't use it.
