I'm incredibly jealous of how Vista only highlights the filename

So does thunar :)
Konqueror, too. But of course that would be too little a reason to
make the switcharoo.
While the file rename thing is one of the nitpicky annoyances I have
with the standard Windows file managers (though I never knew it
annoyed me until Vista came along ;) ), I've have just as many
nitpicky issues with OSX's Finder and all of the *n*x (Is that the
politically-correct way to refer to Unix/Linux/BSD/etc? Some people
can be real touchy about that) file managers I've tried. Not that I'm
trying to single out any particular OS or file browser for ridicule,
though.
Most people say *nix for Unix/Linux. BSD is Unix, so no need to specify
that separately. You could single out Minix, though.
And I usually use bash as my file manager, but it isn't great for that.
Decent, but not great.
Command line is definitely more powerful than any GUI shell (I use and
would recommend zsh) - of course after you took the time to learn it.
It's like using a language versus navigating canned forms.
