    I'm used to the top-right at this point. Did have a preference for top-left for a while though, and to this day I'll still double-click the window menu icon on Windows/older X window managers to close windows.
    I have a machine that runs Window Maker as its WM, so the decorations are on both sides -- minimize on top-left (which I barely use), close on top-right.

    All other viewpoints signal defective thinking and the need for re-education.

    You may disagree with me, but you would be wrong.

      All other locations indicate a rabid desire to copy Apple.

        Starting Oct 7: The top left is now the only place where the window decorations should be. There can be no other way.

          It is an abomination against nature to place the window controls anywhere except the top right.

            Top right is fine for minimize/maximize/pin. Mouse wheel for shade. Close in the top left, and no stupid window icon button because I can just right-click on the title bar to get the same menu.
