At the last minute, Apple has
changed the appearance of the Dock in Mac OS X Leopard when it is placed on the sides of the screen. If so, the dock will lose its much-criticised 3D appearance in favour of a more traditional 2D look. When placed at the bottom, the dock does retain its 3D appearance; however, a smart hacker has already found out that via a
single command in the terminal, you can give the bottom dock the same 2D appearance. In other words, everybody who criticised the new dock (including yours truly): rejoice!

I happen to be a fan of the dock and I love the new dock -- I'm an unabashed lover of eye candy -- but I'm glad Apple decided to listen to its users.
