This is my understanding. Say you work on development three days a week and documentation on two days a week. For each you want a different setup on your desktop (icons etc). You setup two activities (which might span multiple desktops) and then to swap between the two you just pull in the activity you require.
Hope this helps.
Hummmm well guess i gotta pile in here . The idea behind your concept is all very good IF it were true but it is far from so you setup your desktops for work some for pleasure some for WTF so certain things blindly follow from one to the next to the next remove them on 1 they are gone all over add the on one they are on all this is NOT progress . The original thoughts behind this were AFAIU desktop 1 office icons for OOo ect ect desktop 2 multimedia icons for said apps BUT MINUS the office based icons from 1 and like wise on other desktops that still DONT WORK and yes it is still the same on MS6 . This concept of Activities is just well how can i put this but remain polite "crap" just about fits the bill Pete
