you are early this morning tara. are you talking about the minimize button :)
Well that was done in some keyboard combination, like quicktime just got filled in the screen and the guy pressed some combination on the keyboard and the application under the quicktime just got clinged to the screen. He was playing with them back and forth.
I am sure you know :p

you mean "expose".
hold down f9 key. all windows will shrink down so you can see them all at the same time. that way you can choose which one you want to pop to the front

heheh sure. patron is the turkish word for boss. youcan say hey patron instead of hey boss. pronounce it like as it is written. pat-ron.

lol excellent!! i hope i say it right!!! i went itn to the store once with my boss and now everytime i go in he says "wheres your boss?" so im gonna say have u seen my pat-ron?

hahaha ya you can ask it in full turkish too, "hey patronumu gördün mü" :) but he has a chance to understand it as "pantolonumu gördün mü?" as it means have you seen my pants and I am not sure if it is desirable or not :))
ya go ask him have you seen my patron and let's cross our fingers he understands and he is handsome too :D

If you want to stun your friend with some nice tricks in OS X, learn some basic things in Apple Script and make some of your scripts that would do tricks ;-).
Another think would be to learn some shortcut keys, or, even better, make some of your own ;-).
Here's a very useful link ;-): http://www.macworld.com/2004/03/…
