In a coporate environment, I don't think this is so much of an issue, in a properly administrated network. At home? Well, MS still has some work to do I think, but if a user wants to keep a document sensitive, they should learn how to do that (and its not all that hard anymore).

I agree with you.

But i can add that for home computer where more than one person
use the same computer, the My Documents folder is good.
Each person has is own My Document and the childrens dont
mess up with the documents of their parents...

But if we exchange an idea, we both get 2 ideas, cool...
