4 Cairo-dock is very useful - above all under Lisa which lets the main menue appear on top left, if cairo-dock is used and the bottom panel is put out. With the different themes and the possibility to adapt it to your needs. For Mac-Users a welcome suit.

2 Glitzy plaything, far from elegant. Configurable in many aspects, but not where I need it. Takes too much time to figure out a decent layout, templates are ugly, too. Cannot uninstall the first/main dock and create another one ins its place when I want to, must rather choose new theme and start from scratch.. Have to stick with Docky. Even awn is more tolerable than cairo.

3 The OpenGL version ran slow and eventually crashed even though I have an Nvidia ION gpu with the latest driver. The non OpenGL version works fine, but I prefer a Mac-like toolbar at the top, and Docky for a minimalist dock.

3 It didnt work well for me, interfered with , and even disabled some applications. I liked the look of it, so maybe I'll try it again on something other than Mint 10.

4 After using this dock for about 6 months I can say I understand most of the options and configurations. Without any doubt, this is the most beautiful dock that you can find and the most customizable. However, I don't give it 5 stars because til version 2.1.3 presents compatibility problems with VLC and unselects windows when move between desktops. If there is a work around for this, I couldn't find it. It is a great dock overall.
