And I'm a jerk. We get it. Three cheers for pcguy.

Hip! Hip! Hooray!
Hip! Hip! Hoo......ray

I don't feel like either of those statements represent me since I don't talk or type like a 4 year old Bangladeshi girl.

Mr. William:

1. You probably have no idea where Bangladesh is since you can't even correctly spell the name of the city.
2. You probably have no idea how well or bad a 4 year old India's girl will be able to talk or type in english.
3. You are a jerk.
4. Sorry, I take that back.
5. Nope, nevermind, you are a jerk.

1. I spelled it correctly. A person from Bangladesh is a Bangladeshi. And I do know where it is.
2. Granted, I don't know this, but I am fairly certain she would have a good chance of out-typing you.
3. I guess I'm doing something right when the troll is upset with me.
4. You're getttin soft
5. Nope, nevermind, I guess I'm doing something right when the troll is upset with me.

Well, you fail the test!

1. A person from the country of Bangladesh is call "Bangladeshis".
Since their national language is "Bengali", I doubt very much a 4 yr old would be able to spell better then me in "english"! smarter then me! perhaps!
2. If you do know anything about Bangladesh, you will realize it is not part of India. and you would have jump at the chance to correct my "mistake"!
3. Since I haven't comment on my perference in this matter, I can not be call a "troll".
4. I always get upset when I meet a "JERK", and you are!

So

smurf you, stupid

Ah, good times...

I'd venture to guess that at least a few of the people that voted for the Taskbar have never used the Apple-Option-Dock Icon Click before. 

This is one of the coolest features of the dock.

You do know that Bangladesh is a country and not a city right?  Thought I'd lend you a hand correcting folks.   

You were about 15 post too late

For application switching, I find that cmd-tab (OS X) or alt-tab (Windows) are far more efficient than scrolling down to the taskbar or dock to switch applications.  However, Windows allows you to tab through windows, not just apps, so I have give that one to them.  But as far as the dock vs taskbar thing goes, I'd say it's a draw.  Niether is perfect, nor is either completely useless.

My good friend Rashed disagrees with you. He says that his mother tongue is bangla, not bengali. I choose to believe him over you if you don't mind.

They are one and the same,

"A member of the Indo-European family of languages, Bangla (sometimes called Bengali) is the official language of Bangladesh. Bangladeshis closely identify themselves with their national language. Bangla has a rich cultural heritage in literature, music, and poetry, and at least two Bengali poets are well known in the West: Rabindranath Tagore, a Hindu and a Nobel laureate; and Kazi Nazrul Islam, a Muslim known as the "voice of Bengali nationalism and independence." Bangla has been enriched by several regional dialects. The dialects of Sylhet, Chittagong, and Noakhali have been strongly marked by Arab-Persian influences. English, whose cultural influence seemed to have crested by the late 1980s, remained nonetheless an important language in Bangladesh."

They are pretty close but they are not one and the same. Bengali is used in India while bangla in Bangladesh. It's a similar connection as the one between urdu in Pakistan and hindi in india. Most of the languages spoken in modern day subcontinent are derived from sanskrit and therefore have many similarities. I have friends that are from these three countries and from many regions in India and although they can carry regular conversation each in their native tongue they say that the languages are different; especially the written language.

The Apple (or Command) key is not necessary in that combination. Option-Click only.

However, just using Option will only hide the application you are switching from, whereas adding Command will hide every application but the one you are switching into.

My bad, that's what I get for replying when it is late. I only had two apps open since I'm heading to bed and I missed that.

Later, Frank

you can still switch programs with the dock. althou it takes an extra click.

Umm... It only takes me one click to switch to another application.

Yeah, I tried it again. One click to Finder, one click back to Safari. Am I missing something?
