Each time I show someone OS X for the first time, they comment how cool the Magnification
feature (an option) for the Dock looks. The auto expansion to fit items is pretty cool too.
Apple has posted a QuickTime clip that shows the Dock in action if you have never seen it:

That would be cool to try. One of the things I love about how powerful and simple Squeak is -
you can try experiments like this and have fun doing it.
