includes Stacks, which you 
can use to quickly access

Mac OS X Snow Leopard includes three premade 
stacks called Documents, Downloads, and Applications

The Downloads stack captures all of your Internet

Stacks automatically display their contents in a fan or a 
grid based on the number of items in the stack. You 
can also view the stack as a list. If you prefer one style

that style.

or you can set the sort order so that the items you care 
about most always appear at the top of the stack. To 
customize a stack, position the pointer over the stack 
icon and hold down the mouse button until a menu 
appears. Choose the settings you want from the menu.
