Anyone use virtual desktops?

I know these are big in the Linux and OSX worlds. But they've always been a bit niché under Windows.

What is the best utility to enable this (and do it well) under Vista/W7?

They do exist but all the ones I've seen are rubbish. Slow to switch desktops and non-intuitive ways of performing the actual switch.

Sysinternals has a utility: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/cc817881.aspx

Not given it much of a test run yet but looks promising. Still seems a bit hacky though.
