The desktop as we know it should move on. As I find myself opening multiple documents all day, the screen is very cramped. I have installed two screens side by side, keeping tablets full of reference documents, but nothing would beat a single giant work surface. An immersive workspace where everything I need to accomplish the task at hand ... well ... at hand. Steve
What the desktop needs is to be a screen that is about 4 feet wide by about 3 feet tall, Hi Def, and angled like a drafting table. You could have everything you are working on today open and visible at once and all in easy reach of your fingers. And you could also have room for many small windows running, maybe a slide show of your kids pictures, a video monitor of your home while you're at work and other great apps. MarkWilliams
