The Joys of Vista - New user folder structures

In the past, we had C:\documents and settings\User\My Documents. Now we have C:\Users\User\Documents.

Better yet, the Documents finally is just for documents.

Instead of putting My Videos and My Music and My Pictures within the My Documents folder, they have been moved up a level and are now "even" with Documents. (I did something similar already to facilitate separate FolderShare libraries).

Of course, there is still plenty of bad software out there that wants to clutter my Documents folder, but it's easier to manage with some of the stuff out of the way.
