It's great news for those who like their dock on the side! personally I didn't mind it either way. Is it just me or does the dock background look darker?

Maybe now they can also fix that silly little light problem on the dock....

Lol, well at least people will be able to tell the older pirate copies of 10.5 apart now

Hope they fix stacks.... they totally lose spatiality and look of a folder.... and there is a limit of something like 150 or so items it can show a problem if you have many apps.
Also the Finer in leopard, you put it on detail mode, and it goes to every folder you click on in that view mode, that is odd.

Looks like it's transparent black. 10.4 is transparent white. A welcome change.

I love the look of the new dock and the little lights which show the active icons. It all looks soft and glassy.
