Maximize to Left or Right (Windows 7 style)

[Q2Air2Pro]

Switched to Mac recently, don't miss much, but...

I could nicely fit in 2 windows maximized on screen by tapping "WindowsLogo+LeftArrow" and "WindowsLogo+RightArrow", which is really handy if you're working on one program while having another one open in sight.
Or does anyone know if this will be an option in Lion? (just like Maximize)

And no, Alt-Tabbing is not what I'm looking for as an alternative...

Thanks in advance!

BetterTouchTool and some other add ons can do that, Cinch comes to mind. Just look for "Windows 7 snap in Mac OS X" via the search engine of your choice, as it gives you plenty of valuable results.

There is also Moom (App Store) which is very flexible but it's $4.99

You want Hyperdock:

Nothing else compares to it. It allows you to snap windows like Windows 7 and also adds a number of other enhancements (like dock preview to see what pages are open for a certain app).

+1 for BTT, I've been using since I got my MBP last year and it is easy to use and works great.
