One thing I really like about not having a background is I can have another app open and running in my second monitor. For example, I can have my script or transcripts open in Word and can even type TC into the transcript while a clip is playing in MC. Yeah, my attention is divided, but depending on the circumstances, this can be a real time saver. Typically, my first monitor is completely covered with MC so there's no place to accidentally click out of it.

Something that has always bothered me about macs is the way that programs don't have a background - as in, I can see the desktop behind the various windows of whatever program I'm using. I often find that because I'm an infrequent user, I'll do something like click somewhere in the background, then try a shortcut for the program, but it won't work because the finder is active or something similar.
