Replace the registry with something more user and application friendly so installing/uninstalling applications doesn't bloat the OS over time.

I think this one would benefit Stardock on two fronts...

"Get rid of GDI altogether and implement a simple 3D windowing subsystem API and framework."

To elaborate the above suggestion, make drawing desktops accelerated using direct 3D hardware calls similar and akin to what OS X does in their desktop. Copying ideas? Yes. But at least we won't be limited in what software developers can do when decorating a desktop and customizing windowing behavior.

Aero!

"Could we please have an OS that is modular. Just create a REALLY good OS and leave the added BLOATWARE and useless utilities up to the user to choose. I'd like to choose my own media player, browser, CD burning app, etc."

Please, Mister Gates...donate all proceeds of your Longhorn sales to negate World Poverty.

The other 11 words are....irrelevant....

Make all icons, cursors, pretty much the entire gui able to be customized and edited by default as normal as you would a wallpaper. And give paint more than 16 colors.

Provide a control panel that lets me set and edit many of the hidden system settings (i.e where do programs try to default install, where my settings and temp files get put.)

Yes, I know this can be done with TweakUI, but I would rather it be an integrated part of the system.

Make It Work

if it doesn't then
Add a money back offer if it doesn't work perfectly.


I personally think if this option is accepted then Microsoft will go bunkrupt ..

Mr. Gates, you make the most underestimated 10th best HARDWARE worldwide nobody really
uses professionally, your almost free german telephone support is OUTSTANDING, your
free world clock is cool, powertoys are free and AWESOME, sad you dont even upload
the old ones which are still legally available elsewhere and cool though, many more
free boot utilities are ESSENTIAL and not used by whiners although they are free,
AND THANKS ALL OVER for supporting, Stardock and 3 subcompanies of theirs.

Your longhorn and IE 7.0 is too late, dont worry, Firefox sucks and came too late as
well, better browser already existed free for a long time, still SP 2 did add things
to IE 6.0 no other browser have, yet most browsers are better than firefox and yours

And, when you get around to it, go jump in the lake for trying to control peoples
most intimate core of their private life even worse than SP2s BS elements already are
doing,

IN LONGHORN, where you also ruined XPs functionality of its frame, even if it looks nicer,
were better at customizing that anyway, other OSes were so much better for customizing
so much before LONGHORN and WINDOW 3.11!, that you missed that train for good. Try to
catch up with russian and german animated keyboards and additional second keyboard
flashing at night with 100 programmable keys for you favorites only and a PRIMARY subhub
for hooking up a 3d keyboard even to a laptop, if your OUTSTANDING hardware excepting mice
is not to be dated soon!
and having items in your license read.me violating german laws plus shady
things like you can not go back to old versions youve paid for legally even if you
have also paid for the new version and dislike it. Keep on loosing law suites run by
24 European countries, you still get richer than you deserve to be, although you do
deserve to be rich. You do not deserve to be able to make other beginners so poor and
so prosecuted, and go play with the blender for making your office suite so overpriced
you luckily helped other people instead by doing that.

Hey, Citizen SATYROBE, the topic was to express a single 25 word statement, not a Windows version of War and Peace.

Oops! You are right. Now I do not seem to be able to cut it down anymore. Also should
thank microsoft for enabling me to whine at all. Deleting of that blogs also down and might cause
dead links, probably a safety measure that is good.

Rewrite explorer.exe. The new shell should utilize only SVG graphics, and be 3rd-party highly-configurable.

Or at least make Explorer more stable. And from reading interviews, the do realize that's a weakness and are addressing it.

Mr. Gates, please make multitasking finer-grained and more responsive. There is NO JUSTIFICATION for my having a 3 GHZ computer, and I can't open notepad quickly if the machine is busy with other work. You know, like BeOS? (I borrowed a few words from other more brief requests.)
