Simulates the Mac OS X dock on your Windows desktop.
MAC DOCK is a Windows desktop enhancement utility which adds a Mac OS X-like dock to your desktop. It allows you to launch programs, similar to how the menu system works on OS X computers.
Though there are several different types of docks available which try to mimic Apple's system, many of them are proprietary tools or aren't free. That's not the case with SSuite's MAC DOCK.
Unfortunately, SSuite's attempt to create an OS X clone isn't very well thought out. It isn't as nice on the eye and its customization options are limited.
With that said, MAC DOCK may be useful to some users but in general, not very well recommended.
