I downloaded Real Desktop from Schellergames, a software company out of Germany who has built a very elegant 3D front end for Windows XP and Vista. It's pretty damn cool and it's relatively cheap at $24.00 US. The free trial lasts an hour before you reboot the app so one gets a real feel for the program. Based on what I have seen, I will buy it without a doubt.
Bumptop seems to be the inspiration for this app or maybe it's vis versa as Real Desktop has been out for over a year. BT is not ready for prime time but it should be soon. BT has some functionality that RD does not have (stacks, pattern sets, icon shuffle etc., etc.) but RD is up and running so all bets are off as to who's in front regarding this kind of front end. Apple, are you aware of this? Click on the image below to go BT's home page.
I signed up for beta on this as BT looks to be extremely cool to the extreme but one has to admit that RD has a nicer look based on first impression."Party on dude." - Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure.
