Future Finders will probably provide explicit support for working sets.
However, there is an easy way to create them right now.  Simply create
a startup set by using the "Set Startup..." menu item in the Finder.  Then,
look for the file called "Finder Startup" in the system folder.  Put it
wherever you want and rename it whatever you want.  Any time you double-
click on it it will start up all of the appropriate apps and DAs.
