Controlling your desktop - you or your OS?

How do you organize the applications you have/keep open? Do you always move the iChat window into the same spot, keep browser windows in the same place, stack the windows a certain way so you can always see a corner of everything?

I wish that all programs respected the last place you had them at. Sometimes I attempt to break away from my anal-retentive nature and let the OS just throw up wherever, but that usually lasts just a few minutes.

Do you allow for a more sporadic, “organic”, constantly changing OS environment or do you keep “everything in its place”?
