just a random thing, try this (pref on a 12")
1. Open iTunes, start playing a song, and change the screen thing at the top to the equaliser level bars (the little animation, not the visualiser) this is where the song progress bar and time elapsed usually are.
2. open a safari window
3. use expose to show the windows as thumbs
dont the bars in the iTunes visualiser thing look sooo much cooler than before??
