During my search to discover why Windows wouldn't let me name my pr0n folder "prn", I came across this excellent overview of Windows Explorer, circa Windows 95. I knew that this would probably be useful to most of you, and felt compelled to share it, in the spirit of sharing and whatnot. From the article:
Quote:
Windows Explorer provides a graphical view of the directory structure and rich functionality to manipulate and manage computer disks, folder, files, and other resources.
From the same article:
Quote:
Files are usually stored on magnetic media (disk, tapes), or on compact disk (CD). For processing, files are loaded (retrieved) into computer's Random Access Memory (RAM).

concurrency is not just a consideration of multi-processing, it's also my state in relation to Salsa.

What is there to discuss? the two statements you posted?:S Im not sure what there is to discuss about them.

Or do you want to discuss the basic uses of Windows Explorer as given in the introduction you posted?

Hmmm I don't quite get why you're quoting those parts of the passage (I'm guessing because they're so stupid and self-explainatory), but the article does at least answer his question [grin]

maybe we should discuss why he has a folder full of porn.
Pff. Don't tell me you're one of those people who use the word directory!

Systems Management Server hates your porn.

Anyway, this thread is so super helpful it doesn't warrant any further discussion. I mean, Windows Explorer explained in a nutshell like that! So if any of you spontaneously forget how to navigate your computer, just GDNet search for "prn", and send Mitsukai a thank you message.
