activities can replace VDs for some people, depending on how they are used, but they are largely orthogonal. virtual desktops as a concept are about spatial organization of windows; activities are about semantic organization based on a "who, what, when" state. that said, activities are meant to be a "for everyone" feature, while VDs are pretty much a power user thing (not our choosing, the market of ideas has simply spoken there :) -- Aaron J.
