You know like when we type "appwizz.cpl" in the run prompt to get add/remove, well we would type I dunno like "package.cpl" and get the list of all packages, it's info, how many installed and all that. People could submit packages to some kind of MS database for verification and then it goes onto the official list (in our app) so we can download and install it.
Ok, so what's the difference between packages and install programs? Either way, you're installing the software. Setup programs (like MSI files) are already packages , so there's really no point to that in my opinion.

Linux can get viruses and does have viruses and so does Mac.
The reason Windows has so many viruses is because the virus makers target the OS with the most market share.
The quote you replied to absolutely made me lmao. If someone did sucessfully make a huge virus for Mac, they'd all be screwed. They have no security software or anti-virus. Mac OS X is the most unsecure OS ever.

But what I want for Windows 8 is automatic error handling. When something crashes, for example due to a missing DLL file, Windows will automatically go out and download that file. Also, the footprint Windows makes is HUGE and needs to be shrunk. When Win95 first came out, it could have an installation less than 30MB. With Windows 7, you can barely have an installation less than 15GB, so a lot of the depreciated clutter needs to be removed.
