Windows Vista Flip 3D Alt+Tab Task Switcher in Windows XP

I wasn’t really impressed on the new Windows Vista Flip 3D, or you can call it Alt+Tab Task Switcher. That’s because I’ve seen this similar effect on Mac OS X. Some people even said that Windows copied the idea from Mac OS.

No matter who copied from who, it’s still beautiful and some people would like to have Windows Vista Flip 3D effect on Windows XP. If you didn’t know, the Flip3D effect is only available in premium versions on Windows Vista. For those who are using Windows XP and Windows Vista Home Edition, don’t despair. Continue reading on how you can bring the Vista Flip 3D Alt+Tab task switching effect to Windows XP.


TopDesk brings the “WOW” Of Flip3D to Windows XP and Vista Home Basic.

With TopDesk, you can harness the full power of your current hardware and experience Flip3D-like window switching on Windows XP and Windows Vista Home Basic.

If you’ve used Mac OS X before, you’d know about the Exposé feature. It is something similar to task switching but this is what that sets Mac OS X apart from Microsoft operating systems.

Sad to let you know that TopDesk is a shareware. You can use TopDesk for 14 days and after that you need to pay USD19.95 to continue using it. So far I couldn’t find any crack, serial or keygen for TopDesk but I believe one day there will be one when this software gets popular.

If you want something that is free but that’s better than the original Alt+Tab task switcher, TaskSwitchXP is the answer. It is the most famous Alt+Tab manager at this time.
Improve Windows XP task switcher
TaskSwitchXP is an advanced task management utility that picks up where the standard Windows Alt+Tab switcher leaves off. It provides the same functionality, and adds visual styles to the dialog and also enhances it by displaying thumbnail preview of the application that will be switched to.

Do take note that TaskSwitchXP won’t give you the Flip 3D effect. It only enhances your original task switcher. Not only it is free, it is also small and fast. It doesn’t take much memory at all! Definitely worth installing TaskSwitchXP to enhance your Windows XP task switcher.

      Either that, or start using Linux Ubuntu, with Beryl.

      You write:

      “…after that you need to pay USD19.95 to continue using it. So far I couldn’t find any crack, serial or keygen…”

      Why don’t you buy it, so people who write useful things like that will be able to keep doing so?
