Some versions of Windows are nice, in that the file is technically
   \users\darren\documents
and
    \users\fred\documents
but explorer shows them as
    "My Documents"
    "Fred's Documents"

If they're actually screwing with the file names again, such that you have 
to edit programs or something, that's annoying.

Of course, they could be doing it on purpose, to get people to use the APIs 
that say where to store documents, rather than just hard-coding paths. Sort 
of like a UNIX system changing from /usr/darren to /home/darren to 
/mnt/home/darren to encourage you to open ~/darren
