You can make Vista's Alt-Tab option look like on XP, thus removing the Desktop item.
To do this, follow this:
Open Registry Editor by typing "regedit" in Vista's Start Menu search box and pressing Enter.
In the Registry Editor, navigate to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER>> Software>> Microsoft>> Windows>> CurrentVersion>> Explorer
In the Explorer folder ("subkey"), create a new DWORD value, named "AltTabSettings".
(Right-click>> New>> DWORD (32-bit) Value)
Double-click the newly created DWORD value, change it's value to "1" instead of "0", and choose "Hexadecimal".
Press OK, and enjoy the classic Alt-Tab feature.

I also would like a way to not show the desktop in the Alt+Tab list. Sorry I can't offer a solution at this point, but I'm glad it's not just me.
