Amazing Desktop 2

CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET Staff

Though it may not live up to its name, this application helps you manage your desktop. Amazing Desktop's interface displays a split screen with two open windows and a panel for each. The panel for the top screen has tabs A through J while the lower panel has tabs 1 through 10, and each tab can hold a single open window. Right-click either of the panels for a menu to manage tabs and access settings. It's easy to add a window to a tab, whether it's a Web page, a spreadsheet, or another program, and you can work in the tabs just as you would on the desktop. The program offers other tools, including the handy Run commands that let you choose a Web site from nearly 50 categories, including News, Games, and Finance, and open it in a tab. We like that you can minimize the application and work in other windows on the desktop, but we would prefer the ability to add more tabs. This program wasn't as intuitive as some desktop managers and may not be a good choice for the novice, but it does offer a nice set of features to manage open windows.
