Product Description:

CodeTek VirtualDesktop revolutionizes the way you work in Mac OS X by giving you the ability to truly multitask. If you work with more than one application at a time, as most Mac users do, your screen quickly fills up with windows. With CodeTek VirtualDesktop, you see only the windows for the current task you're working on. When you start a new task, you can switch to an empty virtual desktop and open all the windows you need. When you need to switch back to a previous task, you can go back to that desktop, and you'll see only that task's windows, just as you had left them. And, with CodeTek VirtualDesktop, you can create up to 100 virtual desktops. It's that simple.

I am a registered user of v2 and just updated to the Lite version and, as a result, I have LOST functionality. So I would have to pay again for what I already paid for the app to do... Interesting concept.

They will not be seeing any further upgrades from me.

I'll wait a while - Version: 3.0, 2/9/2004 01:39PM PST

In fairness, let me say that I consider version 2.x an absolute essential product. I've been running it for the better part of the year, and it has made my working environment far more productive and less cluttered and confusing. But that's what I have, not the upgrade.

The information here (and also on the developer's home page) mixes new features with existing features, making it difficult to be clear about what's really new (especially since I don't now use all features in version 2.3.11 and therefore am not familiar with all of them). One of the main complaints I have with the 2.3.11 version is that one must quit CTVD first (before quitting a program that uses multiple "desktops" and even then, it frequently fails to remember which window goes where when the program is re-launched. That makes it annoyingly time-consuming to re-organize many windows from scratch. It's nice when sometimes it works right, proving it can work, but frustrating when it doesn't. I'd pay the $15 upgrade in a heartbeat if that were fixed once and for all, but there's nothing in the What's New info to suggest that's the case. Guess I'll wait a while. But if you're new to this product entirely, you'll probably find 3.0 a great boon and well worth the forty bucks.

Personally, I'll wait a point revision or two for things to stabalize before installing.
