It's curious how some people hate the dock, some love it, and some look 
for software to modify it.  I, for one, happen to find it a way more 
useful tool than the Windows task bar, or it's equivalent in KDE or 
Gnome.  I use the auto-hide feature and have grown accustomed to using 
the dock for a quick reference as to which applications I have open, as 
well as placing my most commonly used application launcher icons on it 
for convenience.  I even dragged my applications folder to the right 
side of the separator line by the trash can, allowing me right click it 
and bring up a popup menu where I can select my apps for startup.  The 
dock is one of the features of OS X that I really like.  At least it 
doesn't have a "Start" button that you have to click to shut your 
computer off :-)
