2xExplorer appears in PCWorld's August issue

In the Home Office column entitled Keep Your Files Within Easy Reach Steve Bass writes:
You can't do really smart file management with software as dim-witted as Windows Explorer. I'd bet the farm that once you try one of my two favorite Explorer replacements, V-Com's PowerDesk and Nikos Bozinis's 2xExplorer, you'll discover a ton of ways to wrangle your files. (Rest assured: No files were harmed in the writing of this column.)

...

The utility chasing PowerDesk is 2xExplorer, an Explorer replacement that emulates the old Norton Commander for DOS. Its mirror browsing makes folder comparisons a breeze. 2xExplorer has a file editor, extensive wild-card filters, and an image viewer. You can split and remerge large files, and you can shred deleted files. Also included are a file finder and the ability to synchronize folders (but no FTP). I love the way the program lets me customize and save layouts, as well as bookmark specific folders.
