Mac OS X remains an attractive operating system, and while a lot of people claim that all computers designed by Apple are extremely expensive, they still want some of the features bundled into Mac OS X on their Windows machines.
This is the case of the famous dock too, but Windows users can easily drop a similar version on their computer using the so-called Y'z Dock.
Just like its name suggests, Y'z Dock is an application that creates a… dock on your Windows computer, no matter the version of the operating system.
It just works, that’s quite clear after our test, and it’s pretty much amazing how many features it actually has.
First of all, it has almost the same characteristics as the Mac OS X version, such as magnification and transparency, and can be easily customized depending on your preferences.
Besides the fact that you can use so-called docklets (tiny icons that provide real time information straight in the dock), the user can also drag shortcuts for quick launch.
The settings menu is very rich, so it has tons of customization options, including preferences regarding the program’s behavior and position.
The most interesting fact is that Y'z Dock remains very friendly with computer resources all the time, so you won’t even know that you’re running it.
Overall, Y'z Dock is a great tool for all those who want to experience a little bit of Cupertino flavor. Just give it a try, it’s free for God’s sake.
