Stating without context that you can't get "dual desktops" without 3rd party tools on Windows is an incorrect statement, since it doesn't have the clarification omitting dual virtual desktops.

I think we're misunderstanding each other a bit. My original statement didn't mention virtual desktops at all. What I was saying was that MS didn't provide for the ability of running dual desktops. That is, each physical screen is a separate entity from the other. They would have different taskbar, tray, and "start" button that are independent of each other.

Regardless, it's a pointless bit to argue over in any case. The only reason I even bothered was for the benefit of the non-trolls on the thread. I couldn't care less what the troll writes or thinks, as it's sole purpose is to disrupt threads.

Nope. The simple statement of no dual desktops isn't true, because out of any context that can mean the kind of multiple desktops that Microsoft does do. But GE knew the original context, and therefore knew your statement was true, when he trolled in.
