Well, let’s just don’t forget the good old Alt+TAB :)
Although it is not a docking system or an app, it still serves for some geeks or Windows ‘literates’. hehe

I’ve used ObjectDock since 2002 and v1.9 (Plus) is the best ever. No more stability issues than Explorer itself :). Together with kkMenu (a plugin) you can have your Windows cake and eat it. ObjectDock now has the Start Menu built in anyway if you want it. RocketDock and y’z launcher are free(?) and maybe FWIW more stable, but OD plus has finally pulled away from them featurewise. Editing the menus and saving themes is still extremely arcane, same as most Stardock bloatware :( but the ‘hide dock on maximised app’ option is worth the price of admission.

I have used both ObjectDock & RocketDock extensively on XP Pro, Home, & Media Center. I have found there to be some long-term stability issues with ObjectDock (settings & icons for dock disappear, dock moves off-screen) that I have not experienced with RocketDock. I heartily recommend RocketDock

The name of the application is actually ObjectDock. Stardock is the company that wrote the software.

Just a note, the product is called ‘Objectdock’, the company is Stardock ;)

I was with you for a long while, using a dock to augment my start menu, using it as a quick way to launch every day applications and games. It really made my computer more enjoyable and easy to use.
