This is a bit of a usability myth, and probably an increasingly sexist one in this day and age :) Assuming 
your granny is part of the target audience, the fact that we're making her use a file manager at all is 
likely the real usability failure. (Unless she's technically-savvy enough to understand the hierarchical file 
system that it's showing her, in which case she's probably doing just fine with it already.)
