Those are separate workspaces, which I don't drag stuff across halfway, but it is great to have a work workspace and a play workspace, and be able to switch back and forth between the two.

Ubuntu 64bit hates my Dell laptop w/ dual monitors and docking station. The video driver doesn't play....on the other hand, when undocked, it works fine.

That is the one problem I am having with it still, so I have stayed with the 32 bit version. They are supposed to have addressed a lot of those issues in this release, because this release will be the one that goes out to the masses for the most part, people that will see their first real look at Linux.

I do all kinds really, my cnc software runs under Wine in Ubuntu, along with my Video Editing and Music software. The last straw for me to Windows is iTunes, and once they get that figured out for Wine, the Windows VM image is gone too
