Let me clarify my exact point. When you have 10 tabs at the bottom in Windows 2000 Professional

- The tabs are not tall enough. They are taller in XP - The icon for the program is too small to really register in your mind like the stuff in the Dock. I had to keep the screen at 1280x1024 as a lower resolution wasn't usable when switching between 4 or 5 windows that I needed to see everything in. - The four different IE windows I believe just said "Administration" or some general thing. If they had said like "DreamWeaver FAQ", they would have been more recognizable.

These factors combined just made it impossible to quickly move between several tabs.

Oh, and another annoyance was that there didn't seem to be a way to arrange the order of the tabs at the bottom. I wanted to have the same order, so I would open things in the same order. I would open my customer database first. But if it crashed, I could not then get it to be first again (left-most), without closing all the programs and opening them in the proper order.
