Don't do it like that. Select 20 apps in the applications folder and press open apple-O and see what happens.
Yes, I know I could buy a PC, but why?

The guy on mac OS X hints did a review of the G5 and posted a similar full screen movie:

The review is here:

Nice to see Photoshop in this one though, I so want one of these machines.
Nothing to see, move along.

And oddly comforting to see it's still the slowest launching program on the Mac.
