PLYMOUTH, Mich., -- Software developer Stardock (www.stardock.com) released Object Desktop 2010 today.

Object Desktop 2010 represents the largest update to the suite since its initial launch in December 1999. Object Desktop 2010 is $49.99 (www.objectdesktop.com).

"Windows 7 provided us with a great opportunity to build on the features and power of Microsoft's new OS," said Brad Wardell, President & CEO of Stardock.
