The task bar is just another panel - you can remove it by right clicking on
a clear bit of the bar, selecting "panel -> remove this panel".

It's what it looks like, a little task bar, basically a special type of
panel. It's easy to remove, follow the instructions above. The new
GNOME also comes with some really great docs about the panel - right click
-> panel -> panel manual should bring it up.

Hope this helps,
Peter
