Erm, no... You hit Command-Tab, and keep the command key down. A box pops up with a row of icons for each program. Each press of tab after that moves a highlight to the next icon, and a description of the app shows up on the bottom. Command-Shift-Tab reverses the direction.
No mouse involved. I personally prefer being able to choose what app comes up rather than having to cycle through them. Especially on my lower end Macs where that kind of switching would take a lot of time (though none of them run 8.5 anyway). Just a matter of preference.

A box of icons would need a mouse click to use, as they wanted a keystroke method of changing apps. If you want a box of icons you can always pull down the list of open applications in the upper right corner of the finder and place it where ever you want, minimize the window and it will remove the names and show only icons. -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
