The most popular file manager on Mac OS X

The Finder is the default application/program used on the Mac OS and Mac OS X operating systems that is responsible for the overall user-management of files, disks, network volumes and the launching of other applications. As such, the Finder acts like the shell on other operating systems, but using a graphical user interface. It was introduced with the very first Macintosh computer, and also existed as part of GS/OS on the Apple IIGS. It underwent a complete rewrite with Apple's switch to a UNIX-based OS in Mac OS X.

    Simple and clean. Works as advertised. If you need a more powerful file browser have a look at Path Finder by Cocoatech.

    Finder is the default file management system on Mac so you can't really avoid it. The ability to view items in columns is the most useful on a day-to-day basis.

    I like Finder; it's one of the reasons I want a Mac. It makes me sad to hear that it's going downhill.

    Good file browser, windows shouldn't come back on reboot, though.

    While finder is okay it needs some feature enhancement to move in to the future. I end up installing total finder to get the feature set I need when working with my files.
