The green dot "optimises" the window size i.e. if you have a
small
graphic it will resize the window to fit the graphic. If you have
content that will fit in a bigger window it will make the window
bigger. This seems a much more logical and useful arrangement than
just having a maximise option.

I also like the way the red dot has a black dot in it if you've
changed a document without saving it. Once saved, the black dot
disappears.

Just noticed that if you hover over the yellow and green dots you get
a - and + appearing - not sure if this is new with tiger!
