Various Desktops in Windows Vista
Is there any software?

Is there any way to have multiple desktops in Windows Vista (Linux style).
I'm only interested in the open programs. I don't really need completely different desktops with different icons.

Are there more alternatives?
Google virtual desktops . . I'm sure you will find many; none i can reccommend though.

OK, after searching a bit more and reading about Stardock's Virtual Desktops, it really seems good software.
Do you use it Zubaz? Doesn't it consume too much CPU cycles?

I do use it both in Vista and XP. Resources is very low. Enough not to notice on my rig.
My only complaint (and it's not much) is that when using Dreams it overrides the wallpaper settings (so that instead of unique walls, I get the same dream).

I'm only interested in using the program in the taskbar... Can you customize the size of the thumbnails for the desktop? In the preview they seem rather big.
