Anyone that wants to get more from their computer and just make smaller changes to that amount to a big change should get some of the Microsoft Powertoys.

I recommend the Alt+tab replacement and also the TweakUI app which makes it easier to play with XP, some features work with Server.

Something like an advanced menu in Control Panel

Has anyone taken the time to mess with the Microsoft Virtual Desktop Manager?

It seems to be a little slow for me :(

But it's fun to play with :)

I have played with Microsoft Virtual Desktop Manager, not only do I find it slow but I find it worthless.

I liked it :) I just wish you could use seperate themes on each desktop, that would make it more worth while. And actually now that I have cut back on some of my running processes it's running a lot faster.
