Publisher's Description
From Stardock:
The Dell Dock is a task-based organizer for Dell Laptops or Desktops. It is helpful to the users to sort their software applications into friendly categories, which can be accessed easily from a dock. So that the user can leave the desktop free of clutter. Customers don't have to locate and open a prorgam by application name by rather can locate it by task, like "email & chat", "security", "view photos", "play music", etc. Users can choose the Dock's location, color, and adjust its contents however they see fit.

"When I first saw this program I thought not another one"
Version: Dell Dock 1.50c
Pros
This program just is so handy and user friendly!!
Cons
The only con I can think of is that you have to still set it up...LOL...always something, eh??? hehehe
Summary
Well, I just bought a new Dell Desktop and it came with a program that was factory installed called "Dell Stage". Between the two programs....well, just let me say this, my new computer now has Dell Dock alone. Dell Dock Rocks!!! Dell Stage is ok but it no longer has a home in my new computer!! I took it out!

"Great ad on for Dell PC's"
Version: Dell Dock 1.50c
Pros
Conveniently hides at the top, side or bottom of your screen and allows your desktop to be free of icons. Also can house all program icons inside folders allowing you to easily find them
Cons
None to report
Summary
I love Dell laptops. Every laptop I have owned has been a Dell and will continue to be. These little free programs that they come with are one of the reasons i choose Dell. The Dell Dock conveniently hides away all your icons away leaving your desktop free of icons. It also divides icons up into folders so even large amounts of icons can always be found easily.
The interface of the dell dock is also very smooth and colorful It allows you to change the color of the dock and change how the icons interact with the mouse. It fits in perfectly with the Windows Aero theme.
You would also think something like this would take allot of your memory to run, but that is not the case. I have tried running with and without the dock and found that it left no imprint on my overall laptop performance.
In conclusion, I can find nothing wrong with this program and have found it to be more then useful on my Dell laptop.
