They needed to "die already" 40 years ago. I was a Unix user before MS-DOS came out, and I was rather stunned by the whole drive letter thing. It seemed like such a giant step backwards. I figured that once hard drives became common, drive letters would die. Nope, they're still failing strong! -- Grant -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
