1. insert a cd or usb drive and make so it appears on desktop
2. right click on it
3. Notice Options in menu (13)
        Open
        Browse Folder
        Cut
        Copy
        Make Link
        Rename...
        Move to Trash
        Stretch Icon
        Restore Icon's Original Size
        Copy Disc
        Create Archive
        Eject
        Properties
4.  Notice Options actually available to select (7) (i.e. not greyed out)
        Open
        Browse 
        Stretch Icon
        Copy Disc
        Create Archive
        Eject
        Properties

therefore only 7 of 13 options are selectable, yet all are displayed.
Why display them if they are not possible?  It clutters the menu

My problems with this:
1. Open & Browse Folder - currently do the same thing.  For audio CD/DVD, 
"Open" should play the content in preferred application. Otherwise shouldn't be 
listed.
2. Cut - you can't "Cut" a drive.  shouldn't be in the menu at all
2. Copy - should be available and should copy the contents of the media where 
ever the user chooses to paste it
3. Make Link & Rename - not useful in this instance
4. Restore Icon Size - why display an option to "restore icon size" before 
anything has been done to the icon.

anything else?
