I've noticed this too - on my laptop, My Documents contains My Pictures and
My Music. Inside "My Pictures" is a shortcut to "Shared Pictures" in
the
"All Users" folder, containing some really bland images. As if we need an
example of what a picture looks like...

Still, "My Network Places" is a bit of a lame name, IMO. I preferred good
old "Network Neighborhood" or just plain "Network", like it is on my
machine. Having your favourite network places in the main folder of that is
useful, however.

At the end of the day, it may be Microsoft's way to make Windows a bit more
user-friendly, but its far too over the top, I think.
