Windows 7 How to: Dock Windows
This was a new feature added to Windows 7. You can dock images onto three different spots on the screen and they will resize: You can dock the window to the top so it will maximize fully or you can dock them left or right to the screen to make them tile vertically in the middle of the screen.
To do this just grab a window and move it all the way to the top/left/right and let the mouse go again. Making working a lot easier and faster!
