Use Fast User Switching to simulate virtual desktops
Authored by: gatorparrots on Feb 18, '04 06:12:38PM

This would be a collassal waste of resources, especially pertaining to virtual memory. Maintaining seperate GUI logins would devour all real memory, then force the system to page out to disk. Not only would this create unnecessary wear on the hard disk, but it could potentially drain a portable's battery life.
