Dexpot: Probably the best virtual desktop manager around

I am interested to hear from some of the longterm users of Dexpot how stable it has been for them. What's been your longterm usage of it like?-tinjaw (February 17, 2008, 10:52 AM)

I still use it, but I wish deeply for bug fixes for key bindings and more consistent behaviour.

Target:
Aston is actually an alternative shell, rather than a virtual desktop manager (perhaps it includes that functionality?)

MikeMcLoughlin:
I use AstonShell (and Menu) and yes it is a shell replacement, there are some hideous skins available for it but also some great ones. They also do a desktop manager called AltDesk which I haven't tried but if it's as good as their other products it will be superb. http://www.astonshell.com/altdesk/

The reason I haven't tried AltDesk is that I already use DeskSpace by Otaku Software. It may be a memory hog and it may not have some of the features of others but I love it - it has never caused me any problems and the visual appearance to me is the killer.

I also use their task switching tool, TopDesk, which again I love for it's visual appearance.

I have been using Dexpot for several years now without any difficulties. In fact, I find the program to be indispensable in my work.

yksyks, nontroppo, mwfuss,

Thanks for your reports.
