Well yeah...drag-n-drop for the OS, but not for
internet connections!
That's why I was surprised when it was mentioned that
itools was needed for drag-n-drop file movement across
an internet connection. I used Macs for years and
relied on the drag-n-drop feature for many a shortcut.
That's why I was so pleased with the drag-n-drop
feature for FTP connections (or web folders) in the
Windows architecture. I thought that for sure that Mac
would have the same thing...
