[QUOTE="Saturn1217, post: 678268, member: 59030"] hmmm As a potential switcher I find this debate interesting. I'm actually not sure which is better as I've only used windows. I don't however understand why so many are so against having options. In windows if you want to have your window NOT take up the entire screen you just need to resize it and there it goes. (granted it doesn't allow resizing to the optimum fit like OSX) Anyway, I think its important to realize that for people on laptops, especially 13inch laptops (which if anyone hasn't noticed are being pushed quite a lot by apple;D ) it is actually kind of not as useful to have many windows open at the same time because you still don't have enough space to work with things. It would be helpful in this situation to have a maximize option. And honestly considering how amazing OSX is supposed to be I'm sure if Apple wanted to they could add a fourth little button that maximized the windows or put an option in preferences to change what the green button does. That way if you have your 30inch screen you can have your multiple windows up too! To be fair I can't really judge until i've tried it. [/QUOTE]
