I still prefer explorer over finder. In explorer you can use the two pane
tree view and drag and drop to dive in and out of the file hierarchy very
easily. In finder, you have to open to windows and drag and drop between them
and it's harder to zoom around the heirarchies. Explorer has annoyances that it
is obviously full of hacks which cause it to block when things are happening in
the file system. It is also annoying when it tries to second guess you on how a
folder is displayed: e.g. a folder full of mp3s won't do a proper detailed list
view so you can't sort by date.
