I can be in a dir at C:\Users\ShadowSystems\My Documents\ebooks\Card, Orson Scott...
I'll Win+R, Command, [ENTER] and it's in *nowhere* even REMOTELY close.
I have to manually navigate to where I wanted to go, getting frustrated because it's a DOS terminal and doesn't support LFN's, and since it's case sensative, Docs and docs are *NOT* the same, even though Jaws can't really tell the difference either.
*sigh*
In XP I had a Right-Click Menu Option to "Open Prompt Here", and I wish I had it for Vista, too.
Hopefully it'll be an option in Windows 7, or can be added somehow, so I can stop manually navigating to get to where I wanted to be in the first place.
