Remove File Menu Toolbar from Visual Studio (Menu Bar)

To increase working space and remove unused items from the Toolbar area, I would like to remove the File/Edit/View/etc toolbar (aka the Menu Bar) from the top of Visual Studio (2008 and 2010) (I don't use any of those, I try to use keystrokes for everything). Is there a way to do this?

This is similar to TinyMenu for Firefox, but I would setting for just removing the toolbar entirely: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1455/

EDIT:

If you right click the toolbar and go to customize the Menu Bar can not be de-selected:

I think this extension should help with that.

Hide Main Menu Extension

Haven't tested it myself though.

If you really want space, click on View and then click on Full Screen.
