Hi all,
What's a good utility that gives multiple desktops on Windows?

I've been using the one that comes with nVidia cards, but it's shitting me 'coz it's a bit buggy and slow.

The nVidia one does suck ass. Are you trying to have different desktops or use multiple screens at once?

Ultramon is a good program although i think that Nark meant multiple desktops on the one monitor ala linux style.

Hmm... It's even slower than the nVidia one!
And a bit restricted.
No shortcut key for shifting to the next/previous desktop for one.

The one I used to use is called Multidesk. Was pretty good.
