The disk icons on your desk are not files, therefore they do not follow
the rules for throwing away files. What they represent is memory from
the system heap, which is why you get "Not enough memory" errors when
you have too many disk icons. When you throw disk icons away, the memory
is immediately reclaimed, as it should be. It has nothing to do with the
finder needing disk space.
