One of the most famous and convenient features of OS X is its dock. It’s an animated panel on the desktop where you can place all your commonly used shortcuts, giving you access to them by a click of a mouse.
I’m a Mac owner myself, and to me this is essential- luckily there is a piece of free software for Windows called RocketDock, which gives you this same functionality for free. It is actually better than the OS X dock in many ways. It allows you to customize the theme of the dock, and more.
