I like docks. I use one in every OS on every computer I own. In Linux I invariably use AWN and also in FreeBSD. Of course, I use the OS X dock on my MacBook and in Haiku, I make do with LaunchBox which isn’t strictly a dock but if configured appropriately serves very nicely as one. Even in Windows I use the Nexus dock.

In the past I used to like the Kiba dock a lot as it’s quite spectacular in how it works. However, I’m not sure if it’s at all being supported these days.

Now, Cairo dock has been upgraded, so I’m going to try it out somewhere soon. I had looked at it before but discarded it as it was quite featureless at the time. Now, this new souped-up model shows quite some promise.
