How to disable mobile sites view on Xoom

My Xoom has a awesome browser on it. But it is forcing me to go to the mobile site view. I realize it is based on a phone's OS but how to stop this behavior.

To turn off the mobile sites in the Xoom browser, touch Apps > Settings > Debug. You will see the debug option, select UAString, and then check the "Desktop" option.

    in the browser's URL type in "about:debug" without the double quotes. that should enable debug mode.

    Open Default Broswer and go to the upper right hand corner.
    Select the Menu Icon > Settings > Debug. You will see the debug option, select UAString, and then check the "Desktop" option.

    just to clarify a bit, you have to do both, enter about:debug in the browser then open the settings in the top right.
