> How many program positions on your desktop can you reliably remember without having to search This is why being able to move the icons where you want is helpful: takes advantage of spatial memory :-). (though on Linux where i use Window Maker - and thus have no desktop icons - i just use task-specific workspaces and each workspace has its own icons/launchers on the clip for the stuff i use most often, which acts as a workspace-specific dock)
