Fitt's law! I was going to write about that in my post, but I forgot! Because of the bezel on the IdeaPad I was using, Fitt's Law was turned on it's head: The closer a UI element was to the sides of the screen - scrollbars, close buttons, start button - the harder they were to use! My fingers just couldn't jam into the tiny space needed to get to the UI widget. At one point, I tried hiding the task-bar, and then couldn't activate it again because it only stuck up on the bottom like 3 or 4 pixels high. :-)
Of course, this will go away once all touch-screens are flush with their frame, but it's an amusing side-effect to note.
