Another solution would have been to simply get a decent file manager for a
couple of bucks. As I see it most Vista frustration is with its file
management GUI (aka Explorer) ...

Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but I'm curious as to how you find Vista Explorer frustrating?

I've actually discovered that third-party tools, escpecially in the arena of Picture and Video File management, are no longer necessary for all but the most demanding of users, and even then, a third party utility is usually a waste of disk space.

Re: Vista really stinks

Donald,

What are examples of a decent file manager?

Have you found any that actually work on a Vista machine?

thanks!

They are some, see for example these comparisons:

I'd personally recommend XYplorer (http://www.xyplorer.com/), of course,
which use (and develop) myself. Here's a recent independent review:
