I've always thought that searching the filesystem == you should learn to 
organise your files better.

About the only valid use for searching is to search the Internet. It's 
not managed by a single person or entity, it's vast, and so it's 
infeasible to find stuff on it "manually". A search engine is a valid 
solution to this problem. I think anywhere else, the need for a search 
engine indicates that you are organising things poorly.

Having just said that, I do occasionally wish there were some way to 
search through newsgroup postings.
