One piece of eye-candy Mac’s OS offers is the program launch bar which animates mouse over events and displays a preview of minimized windows. If this is something you would like to add to your Windows machine, then look no further than RocketDock.

RocketDock basically takes the exact functionality of the Mac program launch bar and adds it to Windows. You can watch a short video on their website to see exactly how it works. There are a list of features you can read directly below the video, but watching shows exactly what the program is capable of.

RocketDock is a free program and works on 2000, XP and Vista, although Vista users get a some extra features such as the ability to watch movies in Windows Media Player in the dock window. While RocketDock doesn’t add any “groundbreaking” functionality, it does add some nice eye-candy you may be interested in.
