   i dunno... multiple desktops means one thing to me and multiple screens is no   
   more than multiple windows... i had an add-on for OS/2 called 9lives that gave   
   it multiple desktops and each desktop had multiple screens/windows... later on   
   i found one for w98 but it didn't work reliably and caused problems... all of   
   my *nix workstation installations have had KDE on them and it defaults to 4   
   desktops... one of my current ones is configured with six desktops and   
   changing between each of them is like rolling a cube around to the one you   
   want ;)
