Really? I use 1024x768 all the time on my 17". It is sometimes annoying.

Just out of curiosity, why doesn't anyone here hide those nasty shortcut arrows on their desktop icons?

They bug me, not sure why nobody has phased those out..

Is there a way to always see your start button but not the whole task bar at the bottom? If you use the auto-hide for taskbar, is there a way to keep the start button somewhere on your desktop (I'm using RocketDock so I don't really want to use my task bar anymore see if I like it but I want to be able to get at my start button). Also I want to have a clock on my desktop whats the best widget-like thing for that?

Not that I know of, but you could just hide the taskbar and use the the super-key (the one with the Windows logo) on the keyboard to use the start menu.
