Linux: it's not standardized yet, there are many window managers around but none of them is the default one on all the Linux distros. Also, many tasks are still unnecessarily complicated (to copy files to a floppy you need to give "sync" command to fisically do it, just everything I experiment makes the system hang - I'm saying this as a Linux newbie)
You should try out my setup for autofs :-)
Always mount removable media with -o sync, and preferably mount it from autofs with a timeout of 1-3 seconds. Works nicely for cdroms, floppy and usb thingies.
