Richard, this is the 2nd time you've mentioned this in about as many
many
weeks. If anyone from Apple HIG is reading this PLEASE ignore.
Yes i noticed this too. My guess is that Richard believes that placing
the menubar on top of the screen is loosing him speed. That might be
true or not, but to me it is irrelevant. In my oppinion, GUI's are not
mainly about speed, but about usability (seasoned CLI users always have
been faster then the fastest GUI users in tests). The infinite
clickable area size of the Mac OS menubar however is of course much
more usable then a tiny stripe somewhere on the screen which Windows
endorses.
Playing into this might also the difference in mouse speed acceleration
used on Windows vs. that used on Mac OS. I always have to readjust my
aiming for the difference. (I think Windows uses a linear one, whereas
Mac OS is para- or hyperbolic).
