Windows Vista is a great OS, and I'm glad I upgraded. That said, there are a
few things that I would like to change and add.

1. Desktop Search- make a copy of the one for the start menu and make it a
part of the desktop
2. Add more color to the documents, picture and other storage areas. Right
now its hard to look at its so white.
3. Video Chat and Desktop Sharing. Like an iChat for Vista that is free for
all versions.
4. Ultimate Extras for ALL. Make these features free for all HOME PREMIUM
USERS after a certain amount of time. It works for xbox and content.

If there are more ideas feel free to post!
