Thanks - I would never in a million years have discovered that by chance. It is just an empy rectangle attached to the side of the screen - wtf?
OK seriously, what Microsoft (and also Apple) should do is start a "coach your mum or granny" initiative. Everybody should help their granny or grandpa with their PC every once in a while. It is amazing how complicated it is to explain some things.
How do I explain that "show desktop" is just an empty rectangle? How do I explain that apps are not really closed when you close them? And so on. Just imagine a noob sitting there asking "why?" and having to explain. Then improve the feature.
