   Aston is a shell replacement application, which gives you to get a completely
new,  powerful  and  easily  configurable  desktop, making your computing a more
pleasant and productive experience.
Aston  completely  replaces  your old desktop with a new one, providing numerous
additional  features  and  saving  your  computer's resources for more necessary
tasks.  By installing Aston you get a lot more than just a fancy look, you get a
more efficient way of using your computer.

Aston  looks  similar  to  the  desktop  you're  already  familiar with, but its
components offer more functionality:
-  Toolbars  (side  panels  on the left and right sides of the screen) give you
   easy access to the most needed documents, applications and web links.
-  Multistate Taskbar buttons let you know exactly if a certain window is active
   or minimized, they also adapt to the width of the Taskbar and are thus easier
   to manage: no precious screen space is wasted.
-  Aston  Quick  launch  can be as small as a single button: easy access to your
   shortcuts without turning the Taskbar into a garbage dump.
-  You  can hide and restore System Tray icons with a single click or keystroke.
   This feature even works under Windows 98/Me/2K.
-  Keep your Desktop clean: use the Panel plug-in to organize your files without
   turning the desktop into a dumping ground.
-  Desktop  icons can have any size, any form (thanks to alpha-blending) and can
   be animated as well. Get rid of regular limitations.
-  Aston Disks and Trash Can let you visually monitor their fill states
-  A  built-in  Hotkey Manager makes your work with Aston even more pleasant and
   effective.
-  Much more... just install Aston and find it yourself.
