Based on exactly whose artistic viewpoint? Why do you think that the dock is an example of bad use of 3D? I dare to strongly disagree, in my opinion, the dock is brilliant and beautiful on Leopard (I know because I am using Leopard everyday (in addition to Linux), I have not just looked at the screenshots). I think this is highly matter of taste and some are more sensitive to things that stand out of the box and others prefer more conservative designs. The new dock on OSX makes my Ubuntu machine look dull, but that is another IMHO, some seem to even like the (IMHO dull) look of Windows(R). But I am sure my father (and his generation) would disagree if he would be still alive. Best Wishes, Karoliina -- To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
