In Windows, some applications have "full-screen" mode. You'd like that, no toolbars, no icons, no status lines, nothing but the app window.

Also, in Windows, you can set the size of pretty much everything. I go into the display properties and set small fonts, small icons, small menu text, small window text, small scrollbar sizes, etc, maximizing the app window space on my 22 inch monitor.
