But on my laptop, I've never wanted to use google desktop or anything that uses a lot of IO and possessing power in the background so Launchy is awesome! Now I just need to get something like this for Linux that's still pretty. Super+R brings up a run dialog but there's no drop down autocompletion :( On my desktop, I always use Google-Desktop and hitting CTRL twice to do basically the same thing as Launchy.

I'm sure SlickRun is a great app though (no fanatic fanboyism here, move along). @Steve: From what I can tell, it seems that SlickRun doesn’t automatically index existing shortcuts (or even files and folders) – that can be a huge drawback (even adding shortcuts to RocketDock turned out to be a hassle for me).
