Which would you recommend, Randy? Will killing the dock (and is there a
way to do so automatically every reboot with these applications?) cause
any instability when an application might expect it to be there?

Sorry to be so nervous - it just seems as if Apple's wound the Dock
fairly tightly into the system. How safe is doing this?
