I've been seeing this bug for a long time. It was happening in the previous ribbon version as well. I can reproduce it on multiple machines and with the ribbon sample app.
Under vista when Areo glass dwm is running and the task manager bar is in a different position (the top for instance) or when there are multiple monitors, then when any app using the RibbonWindow is maximized it will be positioned in the wrong place. It seems like the content area is getting miss positioned. Turning areo rendering off fixes the problem.
Also, under my dual monitor configuration (with aero enabled) when maximized on the second monitor, none of the ribbon buttons seem to work and when you click on the orb, it shows up on the wrong monitor.
If the window is maximized before it is shown (on startup), it seems to be positioned correctly even under aero. But using maximize/restore button will cause the bug to happen.
