anyway to replace OSX dock?

[craptakular]

Hi,

I find this OSX dock is totally useless. Anyway to delete and use something akin to a taskbar so I can see what documents/programs are open ala Windows/ Gnome desktop environment?

It shows what application is open but doesn't show the different windows of firefox or the amount of word docs open.

I have installed fedora on it and actually have an OS that is usable with loads of windows open.

I just thought OSX would be more adaptable. Seems I'll have to stick with linux.

This macbook really has been the biggest waste of money I have ever spent on computing.

ok I have setup expose to work on F5 and F6, it's ok but I still prefer a traditional taskbar. Seems OSX has tried to re-invent the wheel, and failed. At least it's semi usable now.

I guess it's what you're used to and like isn't it?

Well, of course it is!

I didn't know about the clicky thing. It's actually quite cool, maybe something I can live with.

So sell it.

How much is it worth? It's the last of the white ones I think. May have some warranty left on it.

Oxymoron indeed...

MagicBoy indeed...

Lol. You really are a tool! Expose and spaces and show desktop really make osx a joy to use. Assigning them to gestures or hot corners is even better. How have you not discovered them yet...?

They're off by default and I still think the dock and windows 7 taskbar are pretty useless. I have hardly used the macbook and it's mostly been in a cupboard because I have found the O.S. so poor to use.

I think the way finder works is poor, to me the dock doesn't look right when you have a full size window open, I just find it really clunky.

That must make you an ameoba then...

Stop trolling and just sell the damn thing.

How is it trolling when I asked a genuine question about replacing the dock?

Cut the attitude, if you can only call me names just because I don't like OSX then please don't post.
