That's what I was thinking as well because I believe google ranks you lower for site with a large amount of pages with the same kind of link...
My site is related to Automotive and because I was trying to come up with a good way to catagorize car models...I created catagories for each model, this creates quite a large catagory structure...and in doing so if I have catagories set up for .html I end up with a lot of pages that are similar...
Imagine a particular brand of car wax linked to a bunch of catagories...it's the same car wax but now i have a bunch of .html for the same product...and I'm concerned that google is going to see this and disregard the pages because there are so many similar pages.. So I figure that setting up the categories as folders may help eliminate a bunch of pages and allow me to only concentrate on the individual product themselves... But as mentioned I currently have these set to .html.
