Today I've dubbed Chris the Push Pin Girl. I was helping on her computer and noticed something looked strange, the ribbon was gone. Hmmm weird? The "tabs" like File and Home were still there, and when you clicked on them, the ribbon appeared, then disappeared. She had somehow turned this option on. You can turn this on by pressing the little arrow near the top, or pressing CTRL + F1 on your keyboard. This option is nice if you really want extra space. The "push pin" shows up when you have the ribbon hidden, then you click on a tab like "file" to expand the ribbon.
More pushpin news: If you start using your "recent" list in word or excel, there are push pins there as well. I never paid attention to them until yesterday. You can pin any documents that you use frequently so that it is always in your "recent list". I could see this to be useful for Dot and her eww trans xls file. You may find other files that you use often that you want to stay at the top of your list. In my case, I fill up a water tank about 1 time per week and keep track of horse pasture rental money. You can see I've pinned that to the top of my recent list.
