what a waste of time. I deal with thousands of files. This alternative is useless since every icon in that file type is exactly the same.

That is a great idea—While I tend to agree w/ albundyhere on the standardized icon appearance, a code change to allow a pressure click that will show a document preview window similar in fashion to outlook 2003 would allow you do at a glance see what the contents of the file are, alternately on mouseover it could display file name. In any event I still think this is a great idea that shows great promise. Hopefully development will continue on this project and we’ll actually see it in real world use some day.
