Ok ... i know the last guy who suggested "download this dock" to achieve the above got shot down like a duck in shooting season.

But has someone come up with a "gadget" (i dont mean sidebar gadget, my sidebar is full and i dont want it there anyway) that can make your favourite programmes float on top of your screen and grow when your mouse pointer hovers over ala-MAC OS? Better still in full aero glass?

Ok just wondering ...

The first one to pop up in google was:

Appears to work with Vista.

To get Vista extra Mac-like:
