Actually, that's not quite true; it's app-dependent. Try maximizing  
Mail.app, and it will maximize to take up the whole available client  
area. The only difference with 'maximize' on Mac is that Mac apps,  
particularly document-centric apps, don't use the "hard max" if the  
window doesn't need it to render its contents. And BTW, on my Tiger  
box here, Finder also takes up the whole client area when I hit  
maximize.

FWIW, I agree with Robin on this.

Kevin
