I think to say "I use OD because Y'z is no longer under developement" is a bit stupid because if Y'z Dock is better than OD NOW I would use Y'zDock, when OD will be better than Y'zDock then I will use OD. While not. It's simple.
MobyDock don't work fine for me with my Atlon1700+, 446Mb RAM and Radeon9000.

i completely agree with kso :rule: , but disagrees with the approach. <_<

First, saying your not using a great software like yz dock cause its not continued is more than odd, though i dont think its stupid. KSO, we can clearly see how you blindly protect yz dock, but i think it would annoy you a lot if others said that your choice is stupid as well. "Stupid" is when you pour a glass of water on your monitor, but not when you choose a dock, so please reduce the high tones there (see your other post with "absurd" towards ObjectDock. Minimal respect is required).

Second, to those who chose other docks due to yz discontinuation: If you were a loyal user of that app and it never ever let you down, why switching to another dock? It being stopped makes it any 'different' than if its not continued? its an odd excuse imo. :order:

yeah that is an odd excuse.. i mean really it isnt stopped.. more and more docklets are being made giving more features to the dock... imho the dock is still being developered and supported (by the dockletiers) if you undertsand what i mean

plus, no one's come out with anything since discontinuation (is .99 out? i haven't been following that closely) Moby hasn't come out with a new dock, so it's not even like Y'z is obsolete, imo its the best out there!!

Right now I am using ObjectDock. The first dock I ever used on a continuous basis was ObjectDock and I switched over to Y'z when the awesome docklets started being released. I switched back to OD to try out the iCal plugout or whatever it was called and really haven't switched back to Y'z because I've been using OD's taskbar feature when I use Litestep.

On a different note no matter what anybody says Y'z Dock is dead and no longer being updated. Sure, it's fine how it is, but it will never get "better." Yes, I know there are still Y'z docklets being developed, but "officially" it is a dead project. I am also afraid that the Y'z docklet coders are going to switch over to OD and only code docklets for it when OD 0.99 is released so I will stick with OD in anticipation of this. I hope I am wrong. I would like to see each docklet released for both docks.
