Well, "File Lists" is not the same as Program Manager. Windows 
Explorer is something of a combination of Program Manager and File 
Manager in Win3.x. File Manager was basically what you see in Windows 
Explorer, but Program Manager was the program that provided the 
functionality that you see on the desktop and in the program groups 
that make up the Start menu. There is no real analog to Program 
Manager in Win95 and all later versions of Windows, which would 
perhaps make my Windows analog even more wrong than the Mac example.
