Brother!

(I just remembered that on NextSTEP the close button was right, but then, the 
scrollbar was left & there were sizegrips on the window bottom left and 
right.)

I also feel weird having the maximize button to the left when in the usual 
sitation pressing the maximize button makes things happen to the right of the 
window.
