Another vote for “Think”. Best of its kind, that I’ve found at least. http://www.freeverse.com/think/

Rafael – Your wish for a “maximize” button is echoed by many a mac user, and not just recent switchers. There is unfortunately no way to do this and I too am surprised no developer has written some code to alter the functionality of the green stoplight. Maybe one day…

I’ll second the “Think” app. I love it. The folks at Freeverse got it right. It’s simple slick and gets the job done.

Since I use Spaces these days I don’t need this as much as I once might have. But it is good to know about it. Glad to hear the comments saying that it has been useful as well.

@Lilly, Thanks for pointing us Desktopple. Unfortunately it doesn’t dim background windows.. just the menubar.

I’ve loved doodim for so long, but isolator is even more kickass – love the blur action. Thanks for the heads up.

I like Think for hiding my open apps and concentrate on one specific app. Its free and easy to use.

I've been using Isolator for a while now, and it works perfectly. As a recent switcher, I was shocked at how the interface elements of the Adobe suite are simply scattered all over the Desktop.

I just wish there was something effective for completely auto-hiding the menu bar, not just making it translucent or invisible and still occupying space. Just like the way you can auto-hide the dock. But all solutions I found are unstable or clumsy.

Also, how hard is it to add a "maximized" window state to something like clicking the green button while holding the alt/option key? I get the reasoning behind "zooming", and I think it's valid -- but just as valid as maximizing. So give us the option.

It would certainly account for many instances where we are forced to resort to Isolator.

Desktopple Pro (http://foggynoggin.com) is my choice a productivity enhancement (and to hide my persistent Desktop messiness). It combines a lot of these into a single app, which also keeps my menu bar tidy.
