A few scroll-overs get my Safari (Mac) pumping. Worse than flash.

Very nice, I wonder if there is a way to keep the base plate the icons sit on a consistent size? It appears to grow and shrink as I mouse over them...

I'm pretty sure that's how the OSX dock functions as well when the magnification option is toggled.

The transitions aren't smooth. I don't know if CSS3 can do that. JS certainly can when you sprinkle some jQuery love on it.

I would not call this an OSX Dock; at most it is a Dock that is remotely inspired by the one in OS X. The transitions are really different (Mac OS X uses more of a fish-eye zoom). Nonetheless cool that this works using only CSS :)

edit: I now read that Chrome doesn't handle it that well on Windows (which is currently all I have access to). Maybe it's me :)
