Moving instead of Copying when dragging files to dif HDD

[MrPopo]

This is where I love OS X. Dragging files from an external moves. Dragging to an external copies. Just the way it should do. Pressing the option button reverses the behaviour. Could not be simpler.

Just the way it should do according to apple =P

I think it should copy any time you're moving things between an internal and external or from one external to another. A lot of times I'll put something on a flash drive and want to put it on another computer, but don't necessarily want to move it off the flash drive.

But as far as two internal hdds, it just seems like it should move files.

This is why I use keyboard shortcuts. Different people have different ideas of what should be a move and what should be a copy. With the keyboard shortcuts all the ambiguity is removed. Or if you wanna get all linuxy, mv and cp will do the trick.

Blah blah, I like the way it handles files. Don't have to think about it, unlike with Windows.

I prefer the windows way, but it doesn't really matter. As long as it's the same every time I'm good.
