I remember working that out for myself after the same sort of  
frustration experienced by Bill.  It seems to work OK... and like  
Andrew I've got used to making sure there's more than one window  
around when I resize.

But I agree that a preference would be neat, and I like the idea of  
showing window sizes in the title bar while resizing (as does  
emacs), and image sizes when an image is loaded in the window (as  
does Netscape).

As a devoted turboCube user who's stayed with NS 3.3, I've survived  
all this time with OW2, and watched tantalized the discussions  
about all the new features in OW3.  Now I've decided finally to make  
the move to MOSX, and I'm expecting my G4 to arrive this week. When  
I get MOSXS up and running, I guess I'll see what all the  
excitement has been about...
