I agree that there needs to be a way to navigate a folder hierarchially from the dock (like in Tiger), but separate folders with aliases in them has been working pretty well for me in the meantime. I used to have my entire Applications folder in my dock, but with my small screen (12") it means having to scroll through a whole list to find what I wanted. I find that the individual "stacks" for different Application categories makes launching apps quicker, because there are less apps per stack and its easier to find what I want.

I also found in Tiger that it sometimes took too long for a folder to load when I right clicked from the dock. Maybe that's just because I have an old Mac though.

I guess I'm just too used to having my Applications folder in the Dock and going right to it. On my computers it loads right up with no delay. Thanks for the tip though. It's good that people are trying to improve on what I consider a lacking OS upgrade.
