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?

The hierarchy in the Apple Menu directly mimicked the one inside the "Apple Menu Items" folder.
This was, in my view, quite elegant.
There is a way to somehow reproduce this behaviour in Mac OS X, that requires no extra software: create a folder, name it whatever you choose, say "Apple Menu". Put aliases to stuff you would like to have on your Apple Menu. Drag this folder to the Dock (unfortunately, you can only put it at the end closest to the trash can). There you have your "Apple Menu" in the Dock. You can add or delete from your "Apple Menu" folder at will and changes will be reflected immediately, as in the original version.
