“I am talking about human multitasking here, not operating
system multitasking. Every time I have to work on repairing a
Microsoft Windows based system for a client I feel as if I am
restricted to typing with one finger while blindfolded. Okay, I
admit that is hyperbole. But after using X with fluxbox and Ten
Workspaces on fluxboxten workspaces as well as the Linux console
(1, 2) with screen for several years now, a Microsoft OS experience
seems very restrictive to me. There are no multiple workspaces by
default on a Microsoft desktop and adding anything to give a
Microsoft system multiple workspaces would not be the Right Thing
To Do when working on someone else’s PC system.”
