I need multiple desktops this day and age. I can have on one desktop a program "full screen" on second I can have three programs side by side etc. and switching between is just one click or mouse roll away. Comparing to my work mates, waiting them to "by the pixel" adjusting 2-4 programs side to side to see what's going on or when using new win7 or w208/12xx dialogs where the text don't even match to the dialog space and you have vertical/horizontal scroll all the time. That's pain to watch and wait for.
So, who actually needs multiple desktops in this day and age? The short answer: everyone.
