The OP did explicitly mention XP but it's hardly fair to compare features of the current Mac OS with an OS released almost 10 years ago. We had Mac OS 10.1 when XP went to retail, and I don't recall any Expose-type functions in that. It's the kind of crappy comparison that does nobody any favours. -- -> The email address used in this message *IS* valid <-
