Can you make menus with more than one column ?? I have that on my start/all programs menu or for Favorites in Maxthon, gives quite some space to fill. Or having a menu "scrollable"; like the start menu in some Windows was, I think... (or is it an option between this & multi-colums??)

And... this actually could sound cool. Too bad I don't use the AB ;)

In XY at least the menu become scrollable automatically if they have to many lines of data. But that's no solution when you have hundreds of subfolders. Neither the multi-column menu, which also clutters the whole screen -- I don't like it.
I will try and see what others do in this situation. E.g. I heard the Vista Explorer uses a breadcrumb, too.

Oh yeah I saw that for the Start menu, not sure if it's such a nice thing though.. might also just be that we need time to get used to that new way of "browing a menu". (haven't tried it actually, just seen pictures ;))
