A menu system for Windows for users with a Dell computer that mimics ViaoGate or the Mac OS X dock.
Dell Dock is an interesting way to access your applications and bookmarks and may remind VAIO users of the application VaioGate.
The program is basically a type of dock similar to those used on Linux-based desktops like KDE or gnome. You use it as a launch pad for application shortcuts, tools, utilities and more. One can compare it to ObjectDock.
Unfortunately, the program can be rather slow and for neat freaks, tends to clutter things up. One handy feature is quick access to the Recycling Bin.
Overall, Dell Dock provides for a Mac OS X-like dock but for Windows.
