Tom,
What menu bar are you talking about? There are icons on the desktop, and a
task bar down at the bottom to show which applications are running. But
there's never been a menu bar for Windows itself (not that I'm aware of).
Or are you talking about a menu bar within one of the applications? If so,
which one? I've been in Windows Explorer, Internet Explorer, Task Manager
(etc), and they all have menu bars. So which application within Windows
are you refering to, and if it doesn't have a menu bar then wouldn't that
be a criticism of the application rather than Vista?
I've been using Vista for a while now (with SP1), and I have to say I
think it's by far the best OS Microsoft has come out with. Of course, it
still has light years to go to catch up to the mainframe... ;-)

Dave,
Someone sent me a list of links offline to tell you how to enable the menu
bars in Explorer, IE, etc. Either someone was nice enough to do that for
you, or you did it and forgot? My Vista out of the box doesn't do that.
I'm still trying to figure out how to apply my folder view changes to all
folders (they hid those options well). It'll take me weeks or months to be
productive on this POS.
Regards,
Tom Conley
