Top Desk

Advanced desktop effects for Windows XP and Vista Home Basic

Give Windows XP and Vista Home Basic an impressive new look

The notion of using 3D effects on the desktop is not new, Mac OS has been doing it for years, but it is only with the launch of Windows Vista Home Premium and Ultimate that Windows users have been able to get in on the act.

Sadly that leaves Windows XP and Vista Home Basic users feeling left out as they cannot join in. That is where Top Desk comes in.

Over options over and above what is offered by Aero Glass, Top Desk can replace the alt+Tab menu with the Flip3D version in Vista.

It is also possible to view all open windows in the same way as Expose in Mac OS X. This is a great way to quickly switch between open programs.

This is a time limited version. The full version costs $18, a real bargain. Top Desk can also be installed to a USB key
