      Today I was stunned to realise that, even in the local IT group here, I am in the minority of people (i.e. I am the only one) that put the Windows Taskbar on the left side, instead of leave it at its default position, i.e. the bottom of the screen! :omg: What about you guys?

      I position it diagonally (Bottom Left to Top Right, obviously) using bricks under one side of the monitor. It makes people less likely to use my computer. Nah, it's at the bottom of my left-hand (Portrait) monitor. Left or right took up too much space with the original "Start" button.

                            Standard position, dual monitor or not doesn't matter.

                                          Well more proof I'm an oddball. Windows Taskbar RIGHT hand side no vanish. Mac Dock RIGHT hand side with vanish. I'm right handed but mouse left with buttons swapped. (I'm so old when I started using a mouse I was still taking notes so I needed my right hand free for the pencil.)

                                          I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
