Ok, after the review in Download.com:

http://download.com.com/3000-2341-10281 ... ?tag=sptlt

do you guys think that the default NextSTART behavior when right clicking on a task tile should be to display the tasklist context menu (like Windows does) OR the current default behavior (right-click minimizes application)?

On one side, displaying the context menu might be easier for new users - on the other side it would be equivalent to 'hiding' what I think is one of the most handy features of the NextSTART tasklist. Notice how even the reviewers failed to notice that you can customize what happens when you click on a tasklist button.

Personally I rarely use any button but the left mouse button on task tiles.
Once in a while I use the right mouse button to minimize it. I like it the way it is. <shrug> my 2 cents. :)
