An OSX-like dock for Windows.
RocketDock is a cool Windows application which adds an OS X Apple-like dock to your Windows 2000 and up desktop. It is somewhat similar to the VaioGate application that comes with Sony PCs but runs much smoother, is less annoying and can do much more.
It comes with several options and features like letting video windows run inside of the application and many cool integrated drag-and-drop functions. The thing that makes it most like OS X's dock is its magnifying glass effect while rolling over icons and 'widgets'.
RocketDock is offered as a freeware application and in order to continue development, the creators of the free download ask for a small donation in the form of cash or by purchasing a t-shirt from their online shop.
