The gaming system of claim 1, wherein the triggering event occurs upon receipt of a designated input from a player. 3. The gaming system of claim 1, wherein the triggering event randomly occurs based on said play of the game. 4. The gaming system of claim 1, wherein the plurality of instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to operate with the display device to, upon an occurrence of a removal event, cause the display device to remove the second window and to display the first window having the first size. 5. The gaming system of claim 1, wherein the content includes one selected from the group consisting of: a service menu, entertainment content, a web page, and a video feed. 6. The gaming system of claim 1, wherein the plurality of instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to, upon an occurrence of a bonus triggering event: (i) cause the display device to display the first window having a third size, the third size being smaller than the first size;(ii) cause the display device to simultaneously display a third window in addition to the first window; and(iii) cause the display device to display a play of a bonus game in the third window. 7. The gaming system of claim 6, wherein the bonus triggering event occurs based on said play of the game. 8. The gaming system of claim 1, wherein the plurality of instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to operate with the display device to cause the display device to display the content in the second window as at least part of said play of said game is being displayed in the first window. 9. The gaming system of claim 1, wherein the plurality of instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to operate with the display device to cause the display device to simultaneously display a third window having a third size in addition to the first window and display a play of a second different game in the third window. 10. A method of operating a gaming system, said method comprising: (a) causing at least one processor to execute a plurality of instructions to cause a display device to display a first window having a first size;(b) causing the at least one processor to execute the plurality of instructions to cause the display device to display a play of a game in the first window; and(c) upon an occurrence of a triggering event: (i) causing the at least one processor to execute the plurality of instructions to cause the display device to display the first window having a second size, the second size being smaller than the first size;(ii) causing the at least one processor to execute the plurality of instructions to cause the display device to simultaneously display a second window in addition to the first window; and(iii) causing the at least one processor to execute the plurality of instructions to cause the display device to display content in the second window, said content being independent of any plays of any games. 11.

The method of claim 10, which includes causing the at least one processor to execute the plurality of instructions to, upon an occurrence of a bonus triggering event: (i) cause the display device to display the first window having a third size, the third size being smaller than the first size;(ii) cause the display device to simultaneously display a third window in addition to the first window; and(iii) cause the display device to display a play of a bonus game in the third window. 16. The method of claim 15, wherein the bonus triggering event occurs based on said play of the game. 17. The method of claim 10, which includes causing the at least one processor to execute the plurality of instructions to cause the display device to display the content in the second window as at least part of said play of said game is being displayed in the first window. 18. The method of claim 10, which includes causing the at least one processor to execute the plurality of instructions to cause the display device to simultaneously display a third window having a third size in addition to the first window and display a play of a second different game in the third window. 19. The method of claim 10, which is provided through a data network. 20. The method of claim 19, wherein the data network is an internet. 21. The gaming system of claim 1, which includes a plurality of input devices including an acceptor and a validator, and wherein the plurality of instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to operate with the display device and the plurality of input devices to: if a physical item associated with a monetary value is received by the acceptor, identify, by the validator, the received physical item and establish a credit balance based at least in part on the monetary value associated with the received and identified physical item; andcause the display device to display the play of the game in the first window following actuation of a wager button and placement of a wager of the play of the game, said wager being deducted from the credit balance. 22. The method of claim 10, which includes: if a physical item associated with a monetary value is received by an acceptor, identifying, by a validator, the received physical item and causing the at least one processor to execute the plurality of instructions to establish a credit balance based at least in part on the monetary value associated with the received and identified physical item; andcausing the at least one processor to execute the plurality of instructions to cause the display device to display a play of a game in the first window following actuation of a wager button and placement of a wager of the play of the game, said wager being deducted from the credit balance.
