NeoWin has the final Powertoys for Windows XP (official release is in 3 days). This comes with such utilities as TweakUI, Virtual Desktop Manager, Phototoys and more. It's a small 690kb download.

  I want a virtual desktop manager for win2k that doesn't require litestep/that-windowblinds-desktop-thingy. I want it to let me keep using Explorer, just have a bunch of virtual screens in a row. And it will let me scroll between them if I use the mousewheel on a blank part of my desktop. It will be just like WindowMaker on Linux felt, and it will be THE PERFECT UI.
  
  .....
  
  Anyone know of such a thing?

  what #1 means everyone, is a X desktops instead of one static. you can switch between different desktops by using hotkeys. you place photoshop in one dekstop, surf on one, write stuff on the 3rd and so on.. you avoid cluttered desktops with this. Powertoys have one built in for XP and it works great for me.
