Silly for you. Works quite well for me using autohide. As a matter of fact, I often set up a number of toolbars (not so much lately now I've built an ObjectBar that does what I want). If I have 3 or 4 (or more) toolbars showing on the taskbar, there is little room for tasks with a horizontal configuration. The whole point of Windows Customization is to be able to set things up as they work best for you. Otherwise we might as well stick to the classic GUI.
In the event this seems argumentative, it's not intended to be. Simply my opinion.

...I could animate the start button with a graphic that has Mime stick 'his' tongue out at you.
And so I shall...
Thanks for the input.

| EH - you could always make a vertical taskbar subskin and have 2 totally different designs of start button |
| ^ Do that! ^ |

...ditto for my joke about the vertical config calling it "silly". Good point on the auto hide...I get round the same issue by having 2 monitors, and all the extra toolbars go on the 2nd screen
