Your link doesn't work.
IIRC Apple runs a special program on the Macs in their stores that sounds like what you're describing.

I know what you're talking about. I ask one of the employees about it once and he said it was a piece of proprietary software developed in-house just for the apple stores. A friend and I looked on the machines to see if it was an application we could copy, but it wasn't. Some enterprising deveoper needs to make somthing like that. Maybe it'll be a leopard feature.

No, it's not command+tab. It looks different from that link. The thing we're talking about is a rounded rectange that holds documents and is stuck to the desktop layer in the center of the screen.

If you want that menu, don't you just program the mouse your using, so when you click the scroll wheel it does that inbetween apps?

No, the link looks exactly like Command+Tab. Those aren't documents you're seeing in the link anyway, they're applications.
Do point out how the appearance differs.

The linked picture is command-tab. The program they have in Apple Stores is a proprietary thing that (if I recall) can't easily be copied and wouldn't be terribly useful even if you could.

It does look like command-tab, but unlike the switcher it remains resident on the screen. And as Chuckit points out, it wouldn't be too useful as a general feature anyway.

try docktop. it looks like that, which can be draggable, and can hold files + apps.
