Google Desktop Leaves Beta Version

Google Desktop is supposed to leave the beta stage and go live today. meanwhile, Features like quick search also included. Here is the statement from google desktop software engineer.

Three months ago, I came up with an idea that makes it easier for users to find what they're looking for: a search box in the middle of the desktop. It's very accessible -- all you have to do is press your Ctrl key twice. After some experimentation, people are telling us they like it and use it. That's why we're adding it to Google Desktop (coming out of beta today). Give the Quick Search Box a try. We hope you find it handy.
