David Stern Caves December 12, 2006
And announces that the NBA will switch back to the reputable, leather ball.

A la the Simpsons, Hooray Status Quo!

Hmm… just stumbled upon this. I dragged the My Computer icon from my desktop to the top of my screen, and this was made!
I tried it with numerous folders and it works. When you have multiple folders in the same bar, it sort of ‘tabs’ them, and whence you double click on the name of the folder, it slides to it. Or you can click a drop down menu next to the name and see the contents of your folder. Pretty cool eh? No? Okay…
