   Not on my system (XP SP3): I open a command window (Start | Programs |   
   Accessories | Command Prompt, or Start | Run | "cmd"). If I right-click   
   on the upper left corner, it does the same as if I left-click: brings up   
   a menu with restore (I'm not going to keep typing capital letters),   
   move, size, minimise, maximise, close, edit, defaults, and properties.   
   If I Alt-Enter, in contrast, it gives me true full-screen - not the same   
   as maximise. (For those who haven't seen this before and find it   
   alarming: Alt-Enter again restores matters.)

   Alt-Enter removes all trace of scroll bars ... (-:
