Yes, I keep four desktops, so I have one for Photoshop and development,
another for web work, a third for GPS/Google Earth - or other special
projects, and a fourth for email and web. That plus two monitors, means I
have a lot of stuff open at the same time. Whe I switch desktops, it all
swaps in and out at the same time, so a faster swap drive makes a big
difference.

I didn't try it on my windows system until I saw how nice it was after
upgrading to Tiger - then I found out there was a free version from
Microsoft.

Some bugs are just that way - or maybe, like me, you are still recovering
from the realization that "The Wire" is really over!
