Vexing vista

What is it with the new Windows Vista ‘Save As’ window – apparently similar organisational gaffs appear elsewhere when you’re browsing files.

  • Where’s the separation between the folders on the left and the content on the right?
  • Why do the sort criteria live at the top in such an awful arrangement?
  • Where can you change the view? Or is it that stupid little keypad thing at the bottom left? And if it is, why is it there?
  • Why does sorting by ‘Name’ not actually sort by Name?
  • Why is it not obvious that you can change the Meta data for the file until you click on the field you want to change?
