>To click on an icon? Where, on my desktop? I'd have to close a bunch of windows first, and I need those windows open, that's where I work, that's why I have the computer, to get things done on it. It's like having to place a bookmark in each book you have open on your table, and close them all and move them off the table, if you wanted to open one more. And then I'd have to open each window (book) again just to be able to continue. I have no icons at all.

Well everyone has their own way, which is fine. iro the last point above - I use the show desktop -> click my icon - desktop come back. Or use the quick launch bar. And I have arranged my Start menu -> Program Folders hierarchy as I need it. Each to his own.
