CNET Editors' review
Most of us are used to simply minimizing Windows applications to the taskbar, which is an easy enough way to set aside applications we're not using but plan to come back to. With T3Desk, however, users can create 3D representations of minimized applications on their desktop. This makes it easy to see exactly what you have open at any one time and easily return to the desired window.
The program opens with a large dashboard containing a welcome message, options, Help, and FAQs. Along the bottom a quick navigation bar lets users quickly access a variety of search engines, social networking sites, and much more. This feature seems a bit superfluous given the main purpose of T3Desk, but we suppose it could be useful. Actually using the program to minimize applications in 3D is easy; when T3Desk is running, a small square appears in the upper right corner of every application. Simply click the square, and the window is whisked away to the desktop. Once an application is minimized, it can be moved around the screen, rotated, flipped, and otherwise manipulated. There are plenty of options for customization; users can adjust the opacity, size, angle, and zooming features of minimized windows; add sound effects; and exclude particular applications from T3Desk. The program's built-in Help file is well-written and thorough. Overall, we didn't find T3Desk to be particularly useful, but it does offer some neat effects and is worth checking out if you enjoy tweaking your desktop's appearance.
T3Desk comes as a ZIP file. It installs and uninstalls without issues. We recommend this program to all users.
Publisher's Description
From Tehnif Software:
T3Desk lets you manage your applications more easily in a 3D desktop adding the third dimension to your Windows screen.
"3Dmized" windows will appear in three dimensions and transparent on your screen and have the ability to be flipped, zoomed, moved, swiveled in almost anyway you want. T3Desk is lightweight on your resources, unlike most applications of its kind.
With T3Desk you can set the options regarding display, zooming, hot keys and sounds. You can configure your 3D window animation, transparency effect, the 3D initial angle and distance, the transition effects and more.

"Does not work with Adobe CS4 products."
Version: T3Desk 10.09
Pros
Interesting idea.
Cons
Not very usable.
Summary
Bombs each time I try to use from within a CS4 app. Too bad, the program works pretty well on other apps.

"Nice looks, but In 10.09 too many conflicting issues."
Version: T3Desk 10.09
Pros
It is nice to be able to toggle minimize/maximize of a window, or several and at the same time keep it in sight.
Cons
No toggle to minimize all windows. Restoring All happens via the menu.
Alt+Tab only works on T3 all minimized. Alt+F4 closes tabs in apps, not the apps.
The bad zoom options have to be disabled.
Some text-editors will not work properly with T3.Summary
T3's looks are promising, but things do not seem fully thought through yet and are not implemented well. Because of conflicting issues, version 10.09 is crap.
