Two cool Mac tips
Make your Dock be flush against the corner of the desktop, instead of centered vertically or horizontally. This means your icons will stay put, regardless of how many windows are open:
defaults write com.apple.dock pinning -string start ;
killall Dock
Turn off menubar transparency on 10.5:
sudo defaults write /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.WindowServer EnvironmentVariables -dict CI_NO_BACKGROUND_IMAGE 1
and then reboot (logging out isn’t enough). [Link]

Apple should offer PowerTools like those offered for Windows so that users can customize these minor settings here and there that bother them so much.
As good as Apple products are, they go a long way in telling customers what they want and how they want it instead of making them decide for themselves.
