At a minimum, a resize option is badly needed as the default will only
be 'nice' on some platforms. On my laptop it they are gigantic. I would
like to be able to dump them altogether. I can read program names and
find items that way 100 times faster than trying to decipher an icon. I
guess I am just an old guy that learned to read before the days of icons
and so am not bothered by text. With a pull down menu I can find an item
in a list of maybe 40 in just a couple of seconds and not have to do any
scrolling. It is all fitting on the pull down . It is an awful lot of
scrolling to get through 40 giant icons to find something. This seems
like MSWindows. The large icon system on a tablet is necessary because
you can't 'click' on small text, but tablets have touch screens. There
is a huge inefficiency for desktop/laptop keyboard/mouse usage when you
don't have a touch screen.
