Over the past year or so, there has been an explosion of eye-candy type apps for Linux. With show stoppers such as Compiz Fusion, nerds have plenty to grin about these days.With Avant Window Navigator, you can have a beautiful dock on your system, similar to the one in Mac OS X. AWN is very themeable and customizable, with many animations and applets available. And hey, it's pretty! Unlike other dock clones, AWN is very simple and intuitive. Users can simply drag-and-drop any application short cut to the dock, just like in OSX.
AWN is a free download, and installs very easily on Ubuntu thanks to this DEB package. AWN is only available for Ubuntu, so users of other distros will need to compile it themselves.
