    My preference is to put shortcuts to all my applications (well, the ones I tend to use the most) on the Quick Launch toolbar. One mouse click and you’re in.

    Jason: Thanks for the comment. I use the Quick Launch toolbar for my favourites too.
    I find the desktop shortcut most useful when I’m working in my second monitor, away from the Windows Taskbar.
