Maximize used to bother me when I was still in the full Windows mentality. But now that I work in a more windowed mode, I rarely use it, preferring to just size to what I want. I've found the Windows mode of maximizing the app to full screen really breaks down if you go to a multi monitor setup, or to a larger monitor (with 30 inch being on the extreme here).
OK, I just started writing "One feature I would use, which I think RiscOS had, is the ability to maximise
vertically only", but I just had a look, and KDE lets me do exactly that -- in fact, it lets me bind vertical, horizontal, or full-screen maximise to any of the three button-presses on the maximise icon. So that's pretty cool.
