Object Desktop Fall Preview

Part 1

This fall Object Desktop users are in for a real treat.  WindowBlinds 5 alpha 1 is expected to come out sometime this month.  Moreover, WindowFX 2.5 is nearly complete and it has some cool new features such as taskbar previews and a Ctrl-Tab feature that lets people cycle through their running programs quickly and more visually than the existing Alt-Tab method.  More to come. Stay tuned..

If you don't already have Object Desktop, now's a good time to get it. There's an upgrade path also for people who have one of the stand-alone programs of it.  Object Desktop users get everything already available for it plus all updates and new programs we add for a year after purchase!

I'm really looking forward to the new WB beta.

Brad, you might want to look into a new problem that has surfaced though, the MS WinFX framework (installed with Microsoft Max) messes up the .wba file association so that you can no longer automatically install WB skins. A pain in the neck, and I had to manually change the association back to WB...

MS WinFX, Stardock WindowFX, this is gonna get confusing soon...

MS seems to be riding roughshod all over Stardocks' product names and file formats

Oh it's really even more obnoxious -- the beta of Windows Vista is using the .WBA extension!
