If I had a 10 acre plot of land, I wouldn't build a house to cover the entire area. I would use part of the land for a house, part of the land for a garage, part of the land for a yard, and part of the land for a pool. It's called multitasking.

One of the benefits of a larger monitor (larger than, say, the 14 inch monitor I first started computing on) is that I can have more than one window open at a time, and see information in both windows at the same time.

And yes, I actually do this. I keep trying the beta, but they give so much of their real estate over to ads, that there's little left for my actual mail. Sure, I could open my Yahoo mail up in a new window instead of a tab, and maximise that one window, but why should I have to change my browsing habit for one program. For me, Yahoo Mail Beta's worst sin is that it is absolutely unforgiving to anybody who doesn't wish to turn over the whole monitor to an email program. K
