Is SD Virtual Desktops working under Windows 7 32-bit?

Didn't realize the Windows 7 64-bit wasn't working with Virtual Desktop.

The availability of the Virtual Desktop function was the only reason I moved from OS/2 to Windows back in the day.

I'm basically thinking about junking my new 64-bit install and going to 32-bit, but I'd like to be certain that Virtual Desktop will work under the 32-bit version of Windows 7 Professional.

I wonder if anybody has an idea how useful this program is when with a dual monitor environment?  This is about the only part of Objectdesktop that I actually use, but I'm using it constantly.  The ability to see the programs I have open and in which windows with a glance at my taskbar is invaluable to me.

Hadn't actually checked on answers to my question recently.  I went ahead and updated another machine to Win 7 Pro - 32bit.  SVD actually works quite well.  At least as well as in XP Pro.

I was pleased.  Not going to bother changing the other machine back to 32-bit, but if anyone still cares or looks, you can install SVD under Win 7 with no problem so long as it is the 32-bit version.
