It was 10 PM on a Tuesday, and Leo was staring at his cluttered laptop screen, trying to finish a grant proposal.

He had seen his colleague Maya’s screen once—Dropbox had sat there like a native drive, a friendly blue icon right under “Desktop.” But on his machine? Nothing. add dropbox to explorer
