If you don't like it (and no one does) then be sure to tell them that. If we flood Firaxis with e-mails they'll listen.

Some email addresses i've found:

askthecivteam@firaxis.com
jmorris@firaxis.com
dmagaha@firaxis.com

Everyone write them an e-mail, make them thoughtful and explain why you don't like full screen. Explain why you want more than 7 players. Do it and do it now. Sooner we get it in, the less likely it'll be set in stone already. A massive response to anything will certainly change their minds, now folks its time to e-mail like mad!!!

Too much use of directx will later result in a mac version that is incompattible whit the PC version
Don't know if this aplies to having windowed mode or not but I thought I would just remind you about this...

Alt-Tab tends to cause crashes when used with fullscreen programs in my experience, at least with Win 98.
