I like to run all apps maximized. That way, I can focus on the task at hand and not be distracted by stuff going on in other apps. Also, less clutter = more productivity.

You must not develop a website, or you must have a small monitor.

As a web developer. I always run two monitors - one has my emacs, terminals, process manager, and browser, all nicely tiled on a 30" monitor.

On my other screen, I keep iTunes, skype, and other distractions.

I work on a website and I use two 24" monitors. Firefox maximized on one (Firebug takes up tons of room you know!), and screen (with emacs/terminals/etc) on the other.

I think this is more a personal preference thing than anything else. (And I use my laptop for music and IM, but its usually displaying the Vista enter password screen anyway.)

Someday Vista will stop hurting you :)

I actually use Vista as a window manager for all my Linux tools. I kind of like it.

More like 2012

You're right. I have a 13" white MacBook.

There is something to be said for that, but IMO you should maybe be using the minimize button instead of the maximize.
