Hi Claire
I use the "Dock" to open all my applications and I'm very happy with it.
I just like the hierarchy part of the apple menu in the earlier OS's. It's just
a faster way to get to things that are not used as often. I downloaded
"Classic Menu" from the Version Tracker site. It's very simple and works
great. By the way, does anyone remember "Now Utilities"? Isn't that
where Apple got the idea in the first place?

Dean,
The nice thing about using the dock is that it's a one-click operation. In OS 9's Apple Menu, you clicked the apple, went down to whatever you were choosing and clicked again. (Or was it click the apple, drag to the intended item, and then release? Or was that OS 7? Oh, well.)
Even in OSX, if your application is sitting on your desktop, you have to double-click it to activate it. However, if it's in the dock, you single-click it. I missed my Apple Menu for a very short period of time before the dock became VERY intuitive.
Give it a try, Claire
Thanks Laurent, and Aaron.
That's to bad Apple left that out. I'll take a look at the options you mentioned.
