Bluemercury:
Does anyone use them, i've been using launchy for some time....which ones do you guys use?

ashort:
I've installed Quicksilver on the Mac, when I remember it is there, it's terrific.

For my XP Laptop, I use Punk Software's Rocketdock.  It is very "OSX Dock".  People see it and say "Are you running Mac software on that Thinkpad?"  

:-D

Bluemercury:
Yeah, quicksilver gets many positive notes from users....

iMav:
For my most-used applications, I typically have them in the Dock in OS X or as a shortcut in the top panel under Linux/GNOME.  

Additionally, under OS X, I have the Applications folder pinned to the right portion of the dock and have it set to "View Contents as List".  This gives me a sort of poor man's "start menu" when I left clock on it.  Works quite well.

Bluemercury:
Launchy's now has some interesting options, i can say compose gmail emails, by typing, something like, emailname/adresssubjectmessage....it works really well. you can also use some windows command line applications....
