new dock replacement!!!
Workstrip for OS X has just been released, and I love it!! I had nothing against the dock, but this is so much better. Imagine the dock, dragthing and drop drawers in one, and then some. You're able to preview everything (pictures/movies/html/flash/gifs) from a popup menu now, and every icon has it's own drawer in which you can store files and folders you need to access often for that application. It also has vitual workspaces.
Here are some pictures, but they don't really do this app justice:

EDIT: Tried it. Great, but without minimizing, unusable. Windowshading sucks. If it minimized, I'd use it. Right-clicked control menus like the dock would be nice too.
Some people might not know of another totally-cool Mac OS X utility: System Manager

It shows the system, memory, cpu, network and classic load in detail.
Then I right-clicked the dock icon. Start up classic, uptime, your computer's IP addys, processes, system preferences list. A must have.
I see you use AlumiteX. Cool theme, funny spelling. Been using it for a few weeks now.

I know have the dock hidden on the left-hand side, and use Workstrip full time now. In fact, I just bought it. Yep, that's how much I like it
AlumiteX is the best OS X theme imho. It's cool looking and doesn't destract when doing design work!
