Re: No minimise/maximise (again)

I see this "Distraction free computing" come up about gnome 3. � Watching a movie and you need to bring an application, having all applications disappear and show up as thumbnails on a separate screen seems very distracting to me. � I have two montiors and one of my monitors goes blank (well with background) to bring up the activities screen. � I'd find it "less" distracting if I could bring up applications via a short key without disrubting all the things I'm working on/monitoring or watching. � If anything leave the second monitor alone.

But that's just me... I've been using docky to work around this distraction. �Much nicer to just have a little bar that appears at the bottom with your applications than taking over your entire desktop. �Of course the fact it can take up to 15 seconds or longer to bring up the activities menu doesn't help. �But it only happens on my Xeon quad cores oddly�enough. �Graphics and the Dell T100 and 840 just don't seem to get along. All other computers I have it's 1-2 seconds.
