Apps Virtual device file locations

[Miketronix]

When testing a program on the virtual device, where would the default external dir be on a Windows computer? This would be the SD card on a real tablet, which doesn't exist on the virtual tablet.

Why is Android Development not listed in the main Forum listing?
The directory listing says:
Android Forums > Android Development > Application Development
Developer 101
But it's just not there.
(that's why this is a re-post, I couldn't find the right page)

I've noticed that the search button doesn't seem to do anything on this site. Does it work for anyone else?

Here is an update.
Forget the virtual SD card, how do I write to the hard disk?

Here's what I found so far.
The virtual SD card is stored as a file at:
C:\Users\Mike\.android\avd\Acer1.avd\sdcard.img
Since it's a file and not a folder I can't prewrite my data files to it without downloading an IMG utility.
And it appears the virtual device can not directly access my hard disk, presumably because a real device could not either.
My real app will need to read my computer from the network, and it looks like the virtual device will too.
