Moving windows on desktop

I used to use a free app called "Window Dragon" which moved a window or resized it by mouse and a couple of keys. Unfortunately, it doesn't work on an Intel computer.



I've tried Window Wrangler which is a keyboard app. It's okay, but I prefer using the mouse to move windows around.



I'm about to buy Zoom; however, free is always better. Does anyone know of a freebie window mover that works with Snow Leopard?

    It's built into OSX! It doesn't get any more free for OSX users: grab the top horizontal edge of a window to move it around the screen, grab its bottom right corner to resize...

    Are you being sarcastic or just humorous?



    I used Window Dragon so I could grab the window ANYWHERE and drag it. Too, I wouldn't have to find that tiny corner especially when it's down near the dock. I can't tell you how many times I've opened the dock trying to grab that @#$%^&* corner.



    This is one time that a PC does a better job. Why doesn't Apple follow suit and create better control over moving and resizing?



    If PC's and third party apps can do it, why not Apple?
