Even if that were true, that's got nothing to do with the API, that's just the user's UI. But it's not true. Nothing significant, technically speaking, has changed. By default, you won't see any volumes on the Desktop, and new Finder windows will open to $HOME. But you can change that behavior in the Finder preferences, and in any event, the volumes are still always available. -- Chris Nandor pudge@xxxxx.xxx http://pudge.net/ Open Source Development Network pudge@xxxx.xxx http://osdn.com/There's stuff above here
