Theres heaps of ways to copy files in W9x. Simple drag. Or Ctrl-C,
Ctrl-V. Or Use icons on the toolbar. Then theres more tricky ones
like using SendTo. Or of couse one could use the command
prompt. :-)

If you right-drag something, it will put the little menu, so you can
chose to move, copy, or create shortcut.

I have a shortcut to notepad in SendTo. Its very useful. (Once I
even tried experiementing fooling in the registry to put it directly in
the menu, rather than having to go through the submenu.

If you shift-right-click a file, it will show an "Open With..." in the
right-click menu. How many peiople knew this one?

The notepad.exe from WNT has not a limit of file size like W9x's. Is
there a way to get it working? IIRC a straight copy will not do. Edit
is adequate, but I've gotten used to the scroll wheel. ;-)

Quake3 does not like it if it is "Always on Top". :-(
