My boss doesn't like it, he wants it hidden and just access that stuff through the dashbar's Finder icon.

C'mon, it couldn't possibly have been worth posting this question. Wouldn't the preferences be the first place you'd look before posting a question in a forum?

People don't even try to solve a problem themselves anymore...

1. This is my first question in like a long time. I was in a productive work environment where it was faster for me to spend a minute asking a question on ehMac than to search for it myself.

2. You're saying that for a place I paid $26 to become a sponsoring member, I do not have the right to post questions? And you didn't sponsor and have the right to criticize me? That's just nasty.

Dude seriously what's your problem? If you didn't like my question you didn't have to comment on it. No I'm obviously not a newbie but there are times where people just don't have time to look for the solution themselves, and there may be some people on ehmac who know the answer off by heart. I've also given my fair share of help too over the years. I'm just saying that if I don't have the right to post even frivolous questions to leverage the power of community then tell me what the hell is this place for? This certainly ain't some anti social losers club. I have every right to ask a questions here and I dunno I feel your criticism is totally unjustified.

Even with the help it took me 4 minutes to find the Finder Preferences thing. I think I'm just off today. It's been a really really bad Monday so far. Glad I know now that Finder has Preferences. haha.

I think most users can pick up Mac OS really quickly -- I certainly did, but there a few things that just have to be hidden deep inside.

My apologies, I didn't intend for it to become a grudge match. My original post was my off the cuff observation and was not intended to discourage you from posting, but to encourage you to rely on the simplicity of the Mac OS for answers first, before you go to others for help because often you can get the answer quicker by exploring for 30 seconds than by posting in a forum. I will admit I could have been much more diplomatic in my wording, but I was probably just in a certain mood. Please accept my apologies for any offense.
