[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1582564, member: 46727"] I never used the search feature in Windows because it was brain dead. There are enough free third party Windows search utilities to fill a Xmas stocking. The same goes for Mac OS X. Spotlight in my opinion, is likewise brain dead. There are some folks who say they can do just about anything with Spotlight - you know, leap tall buildings, etc. Not me. Instead I've found several free apps that work lightning fast and will run rings around Spotlight.
