But then you have that choice, don't you?  I dislike a cluttered desktop, but 
I do work extremely frequently with files on a remote disk.  Folderview speeds 
up my work enormously.  Horses for courses. :-)

I did smile when this arrived today with my Logwatch report:

 It must be remembered that there is nothing more difficult to plan, more
 doubtful of success, nor more dangerous to manage, than the creation of
 a new system.  For the initiator has the emnity of all who would profit
 by the preservation of the old institutions and merely lukewarm defenders
 in those who would gain by the new ones.
