Xwindows Dock 5.6
Xwindows Dock is a free application that adds an Apple Leopard
OSX-style dock to the windows desktop. If you haven't used it, the
Apple dock is the Mac version of the Windows taskbar.
The dock is one of the major difference between Windows and OSX and
if you really can't live without it, Xwindows Dock might be a suitable
alternative.
It is compatible with XP or Vista, and sits at the bottom of your
screen. Due to this, it works best if your toolbar is moved to on side,
and unlocked so it hides away. The Xwindows Dock is unmovable, which is
a shame as the OSX version is not. It is attractive, well animated, and
is highly customizable.
Like the OSX dock, Xwindows Dock features stacks, which is a cool
way to view often used folders. Instead of opening a folder window, the
contents pop up in a stack, and close when you click away from the
window. On Xwindows Dock this works well, although if you stack a
folder with many different icons in it, the effect on the dock is a bit
ugly.
Overall, this is a great OSX dock clone. It's not quite as slick as
the original, but for a free application it's very hard to complain.
