Can you maximize your browser window like you can in windows?

Maybe steve is still looking for a fancy name, instead of maximize.
Then he will devote an entire keynote to it.

Macsimized

You know, for people with attention problems, its much better to have one fixed window, taking up the whole screen to focus your concentration on. One at a time. Not everyone wants to see 4 browser windows, fit to the site's needs.

It's also really good for certain kinds of web content, like "cloud" computing, if OS in browser ever comes to the point where I'd want to use it for anything. And of course for setting up kiosks.

What's wasteful is filling up the whole screen with one window. There is a plugin for Safari that will give it a fullscreen mode (Saft? I can't remember) should you crave it. But maximizing windows is not the "Mac way" of doing things, it may take some time to adjust to but most switchers do and like it.

Hey,

Its an old thread but I just thought I'd add the solution...

A lot of browsing is not multi-tasking. Certainly some users will always need it and it should be there. In Chrome it's cmd click on the plus sign top left corner. I didnt know it myself but just tried to figure it out for the poster.

Stay cool,
