On
my personal machine, all the time. It helps me to segregate what is necessary
for the tasks at hand (typically "work" and entertainment). It's also
a convenient "privacy" switch when I need to keep something away from
prying eyes… like today while I was at Starbucks. It's amazing how nosey coffee
shop customers can be.
Now that I'm
thinking about this, it would actually be useful on my work machine as well. I
frequently run several browser instances with their own set of tabs and it
would be very pragmatic to keep my desktop "pristine" for the current
effort. For example, I usually have the Azure Portal and related diagnostic windows virtual desktop
on Azure running that I constantly have to shuffle or minimize. Also, I
usually have at least two Visual Studio instances running at the same time. It
would be VERY useful (for me, anyway) to have each if those with the associated
application-being-debugged on its own desktop. Yep, I'll be doing that when I
had back to work.
