Windows drags like crap

Vista - Dragging

Vista - Dragging

I'm cheery if you can't tell.  This is something I mean to write about a while ago, but never got around to.  If you've got Show window contents while dragging enabled on Windows (tested on XP and Vista) and try to select and drag a group of icons more than 5 icons tall, the ghosted icons fade into nothingness.  It really is a pain when you're dragging a large number of icons and the 'hidden' icons end up moving icons at your target destination.

You know what doesn't have the same problem? OS X.
