Another option is to right-click on the Taskbar and click "Show the desktop" -- which I gather is the method you are already using, right?
Yep, that's what I was using. Thanks!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Omnis, your Mac doesn't ask you to update Java? It's not just my PC that requests that of me.

Does anyone have a rrocmmendation for a sturdy dashboard cell phone holder for a Droid phone?
Mom is pestering me for Xmas list, and I have wanted on for a while.
I'm looking for something study, basic, and not too dear. Perhaps a no-hands plus in so I can talk through the car speakers (I have a cassest adapter -- yeah, my car is old -- but no having that wouldn't be a deal breaker. I'm mostly hoping to be able to see GPS diractions easily.

I just got asked to update Java today. I'm not sure why I'd be getting them much more than you. But it's always updating something, it feels like.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Which model Droid, Strix? The original?

The Galaxy 2s (I think; I'm a little hepped up on goofballs.)
Not the newest version; the one before that.
I don't need anything fancy; just practical.

I'm a little hepped up on goofballs.
Me too!
Also, I get updates for Java on my Mac a lot. (Just to provide a hopped-up-on-goofballs anecdata point.)
