Cube effect for Windows: DeskSpace
Conversation on the ubuntu thread got me wondering if there's a "cube effect" desktop switching utility for windows, and there is: DeskSpace
Its pretty cool, and once you get used to it, you'll wonder how you lived without it.

Wow...looks like it consumes 8 times more memory than the Aero Interface does... 2GB RAM and it was running very slow.

When it says working with multiple desktops, does that mean working with/as multiple users on the machine or just virtual desktops for the same user? For eg I have a couple of users on my machine (one for work and one personal). I often need to switch between these two. The only way I know of in XP is logging off as one user and loggin on as the other. Is this (or something else) a better/easier way?
