I use them on my Mac all the time. Chrome, Atom, SourceTree, terminals on one and usually switch to another for LiveCode. I also put a compiled version of LC on another desktop to easily switch between production and compiled. Have not started using them on Windows yet, but would anticipate putting LC on its own. I only use Linux for testing (in a VM), so have not used them there. I’m more likely to have a couple Linux VMs open at once.
