(Sigh), what application did you expect would open any *folder alias*? 
Can you please be more concrete and say what you did and what you 
expected you actions would lead to?

 I think what is bewildering for Macorphans here and I agree it can be if 
you don't know, is that in OS X, the desktop *is* personal and is found 
inside the user folder. The drive shouldn't show up there, howvever, it 
shows up on the desktop, where desktop always have been, or at least it 
does so by default in OS X 10.2. Actually I can't even remember when it 
didn't. 10.0? 

So the only real difference here is that that every user has one desktop 
folder inside their user folder, effectively giving everyone their own 
personal one (if multiusers are setup of course). I have root, my daily 
admin user, a spare admin and guest. 

Also, to see drives, Macorphans, go to "Computer". There they all are.
