  <p>Workspaces refer to the grouping of windows on your desktop. These virtual desktops increase the size of your working area.  Workspaces are meant to reduce
 clutter and make the desktop easier to navigate.</p>

  <p>Workspaces can be used to organize your work. For example, you could have
 all your communication windows, such as e-mail and your chat program, on one
 workspace, and the work you are doing on a different workspace. Your music
 manager could be on a third workspace.</p>
