Quoting: Shmerl"Closing to tray icon" is actually a bad practice according to desktop design guidelines. "System tray" is a notification area, and not a place for showing running applications. Situation when application is not shown on the task bar (or whatever UI element is used for showing all running applications) and is still running is not correct - it breaks general UI consistency.I disagree. I like my KAlarm, KMix, KShutdown et al running and showing tray icons without full-fledged windows.
There were several articles on this subject.

Literally. I'll start Baldur's Gate somewhere in December.I know that feeling. But I just vote for what I know. I bought and played those for a reason...

Quoting: MyeulCTo be fair, I was surprised that it cost so much in the first place. It's not like the hardware itself is extremely advanced.It's cheaper than many WiFi routers - and it includes what a WiFi router needs...
