Great Product
nullQwerty- Pros
- This is by far the best Virtual Screen Manager I've used for Windows. It's as good if not better than ones used in Linux. <p> <p>Cool Features: <p>1. You can mouse hover over a desktop to see a tool tip of windows on that desktop. <p> <p>2. You can right click on a desktop button and see all the windows in that desktop. You can then drag a program from one desktop to another. <p> <p>3. Alt + Tab will only show you the Windows open for the current desktop you are on. <p> <p>4. A desktop button will flash when a window on that desktop is calling for attention (maybe a pop up appeared). <p> <p>5. It stays on top of all other windows.
- Cons
- There are a couple of minor bugs. <p> <p>1. I've had it all of the sudden start switching desktops on me as I type. I then realized that somehow it's getting confused with the hotkeys for switching desktops. I had to change the hot keys to really obscure ones to prevent it from happening. <p> <p>2. It'll sometimes get confused when dealing with programs like Excel. If you have Excel already open on a desktop other than the one you are on, and then you open another Excel file on a different desktop, it'll attempt to have it open on both and it just doesn't work. <p> <p>3. If you switch screen resolutions to a smaller one, it will then be off screen and then only way to get it back is to switch to a larger screen resolution. This can be a little annoying when dealing with Remote Desktop/Terminal Services when the machine your terming into has a higher resolution than the one you are coming from. <p> <p> <p> <p>These are somewhat minor bugs though and you can easily work around them. <p> <p>Download it and buy it from the author. At $10 he is being VERY reasonable and with enough sales, maybe he'll fix those bugs.

This is a good, easy to use program but i've had one problem...
george_b- Pros
- It is a great tool for people who like to have lots of programs open at the same time but don't want a cluttered desktop and it is very easy to use.
- Cons
- Somehow it has managed to locate itself at the top of my screen with only the 5 desktop tiles visible and I am therefore unable to get to the options, close it or move it! Has anyone experienced this or can anyone help??

- Pros
- Cons
- Summary
- I'm running Windows 2000 and Winaxe. My xterm's disappeared. Apart from that it looked really good, easy configurable and with hot-keys. But I can't use it.
Stable, Fast, Simple !!!

- Best i have seen!!
I found this program to be very useful as I work with multiple applications concurrently.
- Pros
- Cons
- Summary
- Having never used a application such as this before, I cannot compare it to others of it's like. However, I find it to be very useful, easy to understand (learn) and use it each time I boot up the computer.
That's it!

Good overall
- Pros
- Cons
- Summary
- Good overall - easy to use and stable. Just a few wishes to make it excellent: a) the desktop switch window should be integrated into the taskbar. I'd rather not have another floating window cluttering space! (see IE programming techniques); b) hotkeys sometimes misbehave. Can we hope on that in ver. 3.0?
Excellent

- Really Just run it one time and you will never be able to work without it
