How to launch another application from my application

Hi,
I want to create a an application where I will add a list of some of
the most used programs on my desktop and use it to launch those
applicaiton directly from there. Can I do this using C# ?
i.e. can I write an application in C# whose sole purpose is to launch
other applications directly ??
TIA,
Darth
