I thought it would be interesting to list what’s in my doc, and hear what is in other people’s docs.

For the non-Mac follk: The doc is is a Mac thing. It’s where we launch our programs from. You can place your doc at the bottom, left or right side, and it can always be present or only appear when you mouse-over the area. Also, there is a magnification setting that causes the program icon to enlarge as you mouse-over each icon. I don’t do that, but it’s there if you want it.

So… to start, here’s a pic of my doc:

Here’s a list of what’s here:

1. Finder
2. iCal
3. Mail
4. Firefox
5. Safari
6. CyberDuck (FTP Client)
7. iChat
8. Adobe Illustrator CS3
9. Adobe Photoshop CS3
10. Adobe InDesign CS3
11. Adobe Dreamweaver CS3
12. Adobe Flash CS3
13. Adobe Acrobat CS3
14. Preview
15. iPhoto
16. PhotoBooth
17. Linotype FontExplorer X (a free font management utility!)
18. MS Word
19. MS Excel
20. MS Powerpoint
21. VLC (a free video player, lets you take screen grabs – iDVD does not.)
22. TextEdit
23. Address Book
24. Printer Utility
25. System Preferences
26. Disk Utility
27. SafeEyes

Anyone else care to show? Is there something like this on a Windows machine? If not, why not get a Mac?!?
