The Right Tool for the Job?
Stardocks ObjectDock seems to work as advertised, but is it really necessary?
In short, no, it certainly isn't. It adds a lot of flash to the user interface but really doesn't bring a lot of needed functionality. It also doesn't seem to work well on older machines.
That said, it is a really cool application that can help you personalize your workspace and, if used properly, can even increase your productivity with the use of the docklets applications. The target audience for this application is going to be power users, who generally have powerful machines, so the performance hit shouldn't be noticeable.
ObjectDock performs as it should and delivers on its promises.
