The Nook Color is my first Android device and I have to admit, this OS behavior surprised the heck out of me. Coming from 15+ years of Windows use, I found it amazing that there is no "close" button of any kind for any application. It's just downright strange as heck that all apps just sit in background memory (and some of them CPU) after use until they are "killed" by some secondary application, and all this on devices that I would consider mildly RAM deficient in this day and age.

I use a task killer app all the time.
