Yes, it has power, but it has no idea how to effectively use it (sort of like Trump).

I think the damn thing knows perfectly well where my old pix and files are - it's just not telling.


*Meanwhile...*

I got busy giving my study/living room a bit of a make-over which I will finish up today. I will begin the task of liberating my old pictures and other files tomorrow. The 4th of July seems like an auspicious time to begin the project for reals.

Thanks to everyone for your input!
