Why do you people keep rating things so low?
Authored by: palsyboy on Apr 13, '07 08:32:57AM

I'm with kchrist and scottdb; that's why I gave it one star. All of my apps save or download to either /Users/palsyboy/Downloads or /Users/palsyboy/Documents. It takes fives minutes to set that up, and after saving or downloading something, it takes all of ten seconds to move it to a proper place. Or even if a user prefers to use Spotlight to access all files, they can still just make a folder such as /Users/palsyboy/Archive or something, and still keep everything off the desktop.

The desktop is a metaphor, and it should be treated as such. Keep necessary tools there and nothing more.
