No doubt, but the point is getting the job done quickly. Tabbing

Excellent!
I propose that whether one keeps the Dock visible or not depends on one's style of working. I often have many apps open at once and frequently switch among them. I usually

Depends on how many apps you have open.

As I said I had to conclude that your goal was something other than
solving a problem.

Like Apple computers there is more to the iPhone then their Home

Well Apple is not a democracy, which is it's greatest strength and
weakness. It comes down to the single vision of one man and sometimes that
will have a bad effect, luckily for Apple it usually has a very good effect,
but does make change hard if weaknesses are found and Jobs doesn't see them

I found it annoying to hide the dock myself, although I found it worked just
fine at the bottom. I always made it as small as I could and still see it
and let it grow rather large when I wanted it. It's interesting to note
about showing you information in the dock, this is one of the complaints

This seems very odd...the bottoms on all my screens..and all imacs for that
matter...are all wider than they are tall. Why would the dock fit in less
