        @vcgriffin I know, I've heard Dexpot being tossed around now and then. http://dexpot.de/ It's a habitual thing now. xD

            @flamingpandaomg Running it now. There are still a few programs that don't seem to understand the whole 'stay on this one desktop' thing, but overall it works fine so far ^^

              @coffeecream Yeah, it's about as much as you can expect from free. xD I remember hearing about an alternative to DexPot, I'll try to find it.

                @flamingpandaomg Heh alright. This'll do for now. At least I can set up Ctrl-Alt-Left/Right to do things. x3

                  @coffeecream Also, I'm confused. XD What do you need virtual desktops for? I was thinking about installing dexpot, but I couldn't figure out why I'd need more than one.

                    @flamingpandaomg I'm used to using them in Linux. xP I usually have one for web browsing, one for chats, one for games and one to put anything else on. xP

                      @coffeecream huh. Why not have them all together? XD Like I'll be playing Katawa Shoujo in windowed, put pop-out timeline off to the side, and then web browse over katawa if I need to.

                            @flamingpandaomg It's just how I work, I guess xD Not to say I don't do things windowed now and then :P

                              @coffeecream XD I guess I'm just used to stuffing everything onto one screen, and just swapping around if I have to.
