Another Aero Snap Function?
Has anyone else noticed this. I often like to have my windows a tall as I can so I can see as much of a page a possible without having them maximized. In build 7000 when I grab the top of the title bar (double ended arrow) or a corner and drag it to the top of the screen or the bottom of a window (or bottom corner) and drag that down to the taskbar, the window automatically sizes itself to the full height of the desktop.

I agree.
I've noticed that Brink has done several tutorials on different Snap features, but how about having a tutorial that brings all the features together in one place. Just a thought.
