Re: This is unrelated (sorry0

To be honest, from having used this method of file management under countless older operating systems, then Windows 95, every time I installed win 98 I would just take five minutes to tweak it to do the same thing. Tweaking KDE to do the same is indeed trivial. Just get it to open new windows and remove the toolbars.

Then one day I got tired of doing the changes when I reinstalled each machine at work and left it. Since then, I've been fine with things in a browsing method.

Really, it makes no difference in the way I work, and my range of users, from people who know almost nothing about computers to the web/e-mail/wordprocessing users to the presentation/photoshop/dreamweaver lot have all been fine. As far as I can see, the users really don't care; in fact, they don't even seem to have noticed.

The only issues I have with browser navigation, is that Windows makes it very hard to open a folder in a new window when you need to, so that you can copy using DnD. Konqy doesn't have that problem, and the tabbed FM is great :)
