   OK, Done. Now, as I rotate the cube, it goes through Wo rks pa ce as   
   sides of the cube. Now lets say I want to run KDE on one side and have   
   gnome on another; possible?   
      
   I tried running vmware full screen so I could have XP on one side and   
   Ubuntu on another but I could not switch sides. Bummer.
