Why no Virtual Desktop Manager??

Ive been serachin for the perfect desktop manager to use in vista but they
are all pretty lame - best is Yodm 3d which effects a 3d cube like style of
switching (ala Spaces on OSX)

nyhow it doesnt utilise the DWM which I think is an error on the creators
part and in essence isnt very good anyway.

Really, I dont understand why MS hasnt included such a feature - most users
these days have clutered screens full of windows and even one extra desktiop
is very useful.

Anyway, suggestion for a future update - doesnt have to look fancy just work
well (although having a way to switch desktops which resembles Flip 3D would
be cool)

Re: Why no Virtual Desktop Manager??
