multiple desktops in XP?

[Guest]

does XP have any add-ons that would allow a single logged on user to switch
between mulitple desktops, like Red Hat offers? All you do is click on the
desktop you want down on the taskbar. It's a great way to separate things and
I was hoping it was available.

Hello Mike,

You might want to try out the Virtual Desktop Manager that is available as a free download

After installing it, open it by clicking on taskbar > Toolbars > Desktop
Manager. From my personal experience it's really nice and intuitive, though I
don't seem to have much use for it. One thing I particularly don't like about
it is that it's a rectangular toolbar with fixed width and I'm using vertical
scrollbar

Hello Mike, the best one I have found that is also free is DEXPOT

Dexpot 1.3 increases the area of your screen by up to 20 times. It creates
several Virtual Desktops to work easier and faster with many open windows on
Windows 95/98/ME and NT4/2000/XP/2003.


Enjoy
