Using Mac for such a long time, there is this very intuitive way to open or move around files - by dragging - makes me feel lucky having a Mac.
Many will say that "Mac sucks because Mac can't perform cut-and-paste". Indeed, cut-and-paste feature isn't implemented on Mac, but this alone doesn't mean that Mac has a poor quality of built-in feature. Actually, there is much more useful built-in feature on Mac, the Spring Loader. What can it do?
Do you know that you can quickly invoke new Application being launched while dragging some items on top of the Application icon? Yes, you can do it, in a relatively short period of time.
There will be a delay, relatively small in extent, before the Spring Loader is activated. Most of the time, I use Spacebar to invoke Spring Loader within an instant of time.
It's always useful to know that Finder is an Application.
There is a high chance that you will need to drag-drop items across Exposé or even out to other Spaces. It's similar to Spring Loader for opening Application, the only difference is that it brings up an opened window instead of launching it.
I believe I've ever seen the slider to adjust delay for activating this Spring Loader, but now I couldn't find that slider. Anyone knows how to find this missing piece?

Some articles taken from our resource base, tightly related to current article, to empower you with more knowledge on tweaking the most out of your Mac.
It's in Finder Preferences. I have it turned off, pressing Space still allows you to spring load with it disabled which is cool.
this post reminds me of my post where i mentioned about macs spring loaded folders... http://macphobia.com/no-cut-option-in-mac-finder-window.macphobia ;-)

Oh, thanks a lot Steve. Finally I found it! :)
That reminds me of how we Mac fans have similarities. Even our post has that too ;) *assuming that you didn't call me copycat*
the article starts in a ridiculous way. talking of missing 'cut & paste' and then moving onto launching apps using 'spring loader'.
First, the article should be clear that the perceived "cut and paste" deficiency is with resect to FILES and FOLDERS, not other things like text within a document, etc. The Woz has a very sufficient discussion on why this behavior is implemented the way it is on Mac OS -- and why it is completely consistent with the OS interaction design. I agree with him in principle, but I find the Windows implementation damn efficient and miss it on Mac OS. Dragging and dropping is so 1988 and it violates Fitt's Law to such a degree that it's hard to justify not implementing file cut and paste (i.e., MOVE.) The Windows Explorer has many excellent features -- ability to stack files, sort and filter by kind/type, split button navigation from the address bar, &c. While it's hardly immune to criticism: whit, allowing me to destroy files, enter into permissions mode, right-click my way into the protected areas of the file system than should be allowed, &c. It's a more advanced Finder. Finder needs some real re-thinking. It's fast, it's simple. But you need at least 2 Finder windows open to get any real work done when organizing your file system. CMD+C and CMD+V would simplify things to a large degree. -- f9a
Honestly, I've always been more of a fan of just putting the monitor to sleep than screen savers. Sure they look pretty awesome, but if you're sitting at your computer, are you really doing so with the screen saver on?Good luck for the dates. It has been some times since we last heard about the next tour. I hope they can run it accordingly now.Y0QoRKxBYt5MtWIU
