For a company that prides itself on ease of use, there are a few cases where Apple really drops the ball. Witness "Finder", for instance. I just plopped a VW install CD in the cd drive on the Mini, opened Finder.... and couldn't spot the installation files. I opened a terminal window and found them (good luck running it from there though) - so what the heck was up?

Well, I had someone tell me to resize the Window. I hadn't even noticed that the horizontal scrollbar was active. Sheesh - there were all of 11 files in the folder - it couldn't arrange them all to fit?
