Disable window pop up animation in Mac OS X Lion
July 28th, 2011 by Tkjune
Fully agreed with some reviews of Mac OS X Lion that, pop up window animation is quite annoying. Luckily it also provides a way to disable it with Terminal.
In Terminal, paste command below and press enter:
defaults write NSGlobalDomain NSAutomaticWindowAnimationsEnabled -bool NO
UPDATE on Aug 13,2011: Try Lion Tweaks to make it more easier. You can change many other hidden settings with it too.

Hi - can you please repost - this didn't work for me... "defaults write NSGlobalDomain NSAutomaticWindowAnimationsEnabled"

@Michele you missed " -bool NO" in the end. You can also try Lion Tweaks, which contains more switches.
