Review: RocketDock – Launch your Applications

RocketDock is a super-cool dock for Windows. Think Mac OS dock for Windows. RocketDock is a fast, eye-pleasing application launchpad for your applications you use most often.

Not having to navigate the start menu to get to your favourite and most-used applications can be a time saver.  The enhanced start menu in Windows Vista helps and is a vast improvement over previous versions of Windows, as do the tried-and-true, quick launch buttons on the taskbar, and handy Send to Desktop (create shortcut).

RocketDock is a fast, eye-pleasing application launchpad for your applications you use most often.
