perhaps use the term "desktop"? many users equate "screen" to that plate of

"Each desktop is assigned an F-key. F%1 is normally assigned to the first

F-key at the same time. "

"<b>Warning</b>: due to video card driver issues, running multiple desktops
may cause system crashes on some computers."
