I also tried 3DOSX but that was a bit of disappointment. Firstly, they mention having source code open for download, but the project is old and source files are not there. Second, having tried it after XCruiser I found this app to be simpler (XCruiser shows more "information") and yet much less responsive. There are pointers to some more apps like this at: http://forums.macrumors.com/archive/index.php/t-163664.html Also check out Fenfire (http://fenfire.org/) - it has an interesting browsing paradigm.
