This is what I use. With Linux it is running all of the time in
one of the 36 virtual screens. http://www.onlineconversion.com/

You handicapped Windows blokes can use the free Firefox browser
and run it all of the time in one of half  a dozen "tabs".
Not as nice as virtual screens but it is a start.

Sorry I just have to make quip here my notebook runs currently 15
virtual screens
quite handy really and I use them. The support is built into the
graphics card
and the driver software, I just could not help myself pointing this out.
:-)

However I do prefer Linux, but various hardware will not work under Linux
so I'm stuffed with Windows  :-(

Only 15? :)
Always interesting to find out something new. What brand of
graphic card is that? Interesting that a Windows company is starting
to copy Linux. I notice the Firefox and Thunderbird is increasingly
popular with Windows users. Also Open Office works and does what
Office does without all the Bill Gates treasure protection BS.

It is not Windows thats does this it is the graphics card & ATI driver
software that comes with
the notebook/ATI Graphics Chip,  The computer is IBM T42P, later models
(some not all) of
the notebook also do this as this one is now 18 months old, the one
thing you do need if you
are going to use a lot of different software all at once is RAM so this
one is maxed out in the
RAM dept. The graphics chip that is built in to the notebook is an ATI
Mobility FIRE GL T2
