Removing Glass Doc from Leopard

Matt Young just sent in a good tip from Jackilyn.com for folks running the new Leopard OS X release on Mac that hate the shiny doc. Basically the glass doc looks like this:

Mac Leopard with Glass Doc

If you think this is a bit too much “eye candy”, you can turn the puppy off by dropping to the Terminal and typing:

defaults write com.apple.dock no-glass -boolean YES
killall Dock

Then your doc will look like this:

Mac Leopard without Glass Doc

And if you miss it and want it back, drop to Terminal again and type:

defaults write com.apple.dock no-glass -boolean NO
killall Dock
