what would you like to see in the next windows

something i'd very much love to see in Windows 8; Cleartype support for rotated monitors.

it's unimaginably useful to rotate a monitor to portrait orientation for something like word-processing, coding, web-viewing and such, and on windows 7, cleartype makes the text which is usually so nice and antialiased look fuzzy and unfocused :(

it can't be that hard to set the cleartype engine to simply rotate the antialiasing direction when the screen has been set to a different orientation.

I use Everything to do fast searches, it builds an index in seconds and uses the NTFS journal to keep the index upto date.
 
Windows 8 will include a new tile-based user interface that's codenamed Mosh. Assuming this is true, I have to believe that this UI will be an alternative UI, and not a full replacement, or will appear only on low-end tablet-like devices aimed at the iPad. It sounds like something that will silence the critics who want the Windows Phone OS on a tablet.

Windows 8 will also include a new app model codenamed Jupiter that will target a new Windows Marketplace app store. The app store will provide access to new, Silverlight based "immersive" applications that are deployed as AppX packages (.appx). The Windows and Office teams are betting very heavily on this new app type, according to my source, and development has already begun using a beta version of Visual Studio 2012. These apps can be written in C#, Visual Basic, and even C++.
