Yes, that is what I did too, but I still find the default bad because 
the icon designers get used to making icons that are only appropriate 
for a bigger panel. If you try to resize it to a decent size (such as 
W2K), the icons really look too small.

Also, it is very difficult to do a right-click properties when there are 
applications open to get to the panel properties and change them.  You 
always get the right-click popup for something else.  In W2K, even if it 
is smaller to start with, I just have to drag the top of the panel to 
resize it...

Anyway, I always feel like Don Quichotte when I bring this up ;-).

Yes.  I believe it is because of the NIC (Intel PRO/100 SP Mobile Combo)

As for filing bugs in Bugzilla, I'll get on it this weekend.  In the 
meantime, I'm just sharing my raw experience to get some feedback and 
make sure I don't forget anything.

Thanks,
