Some people must like the Windows Start menu...
Authored by: hamarkus on Jul 12, '06 02:52:46PM
Maybe I am just terrible at memorizing and finding names but one of the things I hate about Windows is the start menu and Himmelbar seems work in a similar way. Staring at a long list of app names and trying to find the one I want seems to me not to be a very intuitive way. And don't get me started about subfolders. Starting an app should be a click or a double-click, not going down several menus and 'losing' the right menu with the mouse half of the time.
I have about twenty apps permanently in the Dock (most of them running all the time) plus about five to ten additional running apps that only remain in the Dock as long as I run them. In addition, I use one DropDrawer in the bottom left corner, which expands on a mouse-over and displays the icons of about 40 further apps. In the bottom right corner I have another drawer with about 80 lesser apps. Running apps are grey-out in the drawers.
