Better window arrangement for Windows XP?

Better window arrangement for Windows XP? Does anyone know of a tool or plugin for Windows XP that allows me to "dock" a window on one half of the screen, as if that half were an entirely separate display? Ideally, I'd like to be able to drag a window to the left, maximize it, and have it fill up the entire left half of the screen.

There is an AeroSnap application that brings Windows 7's AeroSnap feature to Windows XP and Vista.

"If you install AutoHotkey (free), you can download and install Windows 7 Shortcuts on XP (also free).

Included:Win+Left/Right arrows: Dock
the window to each side of the monitor
Win+Up arrow: Maximize the active
window Win+Down arrow: Minimize the
window/Restore the window if it's
maximized Win+Space: All windows are
made transparent so you can see the
desktop Win+Home: Minimize all windows
but the current window"

"I love Winsplit Revolution. It features keyboard shortcuts, multi-monitor support and more. I haven't looked back since I installed it.

I personally use the keyboard shortcuts to move my windows.

Ctrl+Alt+W to maximize

Ctrl+Alt+Q/R for left/right side of the screen

Ctrl+Alt+LeftArrow/RightArrow to move between monitors"
