    "So where's the file you're looking for?"

    "On my hard drive."

    "Where on your hard drive?"

    "I don't know. I just click on the hard drive icon."

    Actual conversation w/ Mac User in distress.

    Five year old Dell w/ an eight year old secondary hard drive, some added memory and a new video card. Gotta back up my files cause the thing just has to blow sometime! Works like a charm, no viruses.
