If anyone finds A-Dock, post a link! That sounds like a handy OS9 hack, I always miss the dock when I use my machines running OS9. Icon shortcuts on the desktop? Tacky... Navigating apps from the Apple menu? Tedious. Although, I remember when that was the cool way to access your apps ;)

That's cool! I do miss the bright blue accents from the older systems. 10.5 and 10.6 (And especially iTunes 10) are a little on the monochromatic grey side... I don't know why they still call it aqua since the only aqua elements left are the traffic light buttons, and the out of place blue
