Vista Start Menu |

2000/XP/2003 |
| Each time you start programs from the Start menu, you use an interface that has not changed in 10 years! No wonder it has become more difficult to use as the number of programs has increased.
Vista Start Menu is a convenient alternative to the "Start" menu. It's now easier to find and run the program you need. Visually-based, and easy-to-use. Your applications are arranged in a table with icons divided into groups, which makes it easier to work with multiple programs.
And one more really important nuance: when you remove programs or install new ones, other icons remain in their places so you do not have to waste time looking for "drifted icons" as often happens. |

| Using a virtual desktop manager is a way to organize applications over several 'virtual' desktops. For example if you use two virtual desktops you can put a webbrowser on desk 1 and by using a desktop manager 'switch away' the webbrowser and it will seem like you have a new empty workspace (desk 2) to put another application/applications on. Virtual desktops are very common in the Unix community and once getting used to this, it is very hard to manage without it. |
