Multiple desktops is more of a window manager issue rather than a OS issue, but anyway, people in Windows aren't as used to use different WMs as people who use X in the UNIX world are. There was a tool to add multiple desktops to Windows, part of the Powertoys pack for Windows XP, but I don't know if it works with 7: Direct link: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=211482 The powertoys page: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/downloads/windows-xp?T1=PT And for some context: http://enwp.org/Virtual_desktop#Windows -- according to this, there's another tool, Desktops. >From its description, it seems Desktops is better than the powertoy, but I never tried it. -- Nuno J.
