The Start menu can only hold so much.

<Clicks Start and All Programs...>

Looks like it holds everything right there. JK

The Start Menu will actually increase in height the more programs you pin to it. I don't use that many applications anyway. Images open up in ACDSee due to file association, videos open up in Media Player Classic due to file association, MP3s open up in WinAMP due to file association, MS Office documents open up in their respective applications due to file association...need I go on?

Other programs I just press the Start Windows key on my keyboard, quickly type the first 4-5 letters and press enter. I never need to move my hand from the keyboard. The Windows Vista Quick Search is such a blessing in disguise.

one dock with all the apps you need is better than all that. Just one click and that's all.

another vote for RocketDock

I use ObjectDock because I love the black skin which goes very well with Windows Vista. I don't see what's wrong with ObjectDock and why many people prefer the uglier RocketDock. I tried that once and there was a reason I didn't like it, but I cannot remember.

When I get Windows 7, I'll do away with docks though and use the amazing new taskbar for everything :)

None of the above!

CircleDock!

One-click access to the programs represented by the shortcuts. A mouse with a middle-click on the scroll-wheel is perfect for this, as the dock rotates via the scroll-wheel.

Easy to configure, responsive, and very unobtrusive.

Caveat Emptor: This is Alpha 0.9; however. I've had zero problems with this software.

Bonus: It's Open Source!

    • Garmin Dash Cam X310: 4K dash cam on sale at lowest price for $334.99 by Paul Hill Dash cam footage can be vital for drivers who get into accidents as it can be used to help with insurance claims if you’re involved in an accident, outside of that, it can be used for filming your trips or recording freak events such as asteroids burning up in the atmosphere. If you’re still without one, or looking to upgrade, take a moment to read about the Garmin Dash Cam X310 which has been reduced by 16% from $399.99 to $334.99. To briefly touch on the features before we get started, the X310 is a compact 4K Ultra HD touchscreen dash cam with a 140-degree field of view, ensuring it captures everything. There’s also a built-in Clarity Polarizer to reduce glare from the windshield and it features automatic recording. The main attraction of the Garmin Dash Cam X310 is undoubtedly the 4K Ultra HD video which will capture fine details, and the 140-degree field of view that ensures it doesn’t miss anything important. Coupled with this, the Clarity Polarizer helps to reduce glare from the windshield so that your video footage is better. It also includes HDR which improves the night vision. Aside from having a touchscreen, the X310 comes with voice control allowing you to save video and audio hands-free, meaning you can focus on driving. It supports multiple languages - English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, and Swedish. Other features include built-in GPS for recording the location, date, and time of incidents; parking guard and live view for security while parked (required a paid Vault subscription); and its compact design which allows it to sit “virtually unnoticed” on the windshield. Please note that the product description says some jurisdictions may restrict the use of dashcams, so check your local laws before buying. If you are looking for a high-resolution dash cam with voice control and advanced parking surveillance (paid subscription), the X310 could be for you. The main downside of this product is that it’s still at a premium price point, despite it being at its lowest price on Amazon. If you don’t mind this, it could definitely be a great choice for you.

    • I have a Motorola B12, and it's been working pretty solidly for a year now. 
    • yes, which is especially funny considering you no longer have an option to turn them off, so how could this matter to anyone? It would be pretty evil if they waited until after Windows 10 EOL to renew the certs, but based on these dates, it looks like that wouldn't be possible, so no worries that I can see.
