I'd like to see the co-operation between parts as you find on a mac. And the quickness it brings with it.

Even Linux, Apple do that, after they realese one OS they have already been working on its successor for like 3 months.

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.

Why should Microsoft downgrade their OS because your PC can't handle it?
It's like Rockstar Games should keep 2D graphics because your Windows 95 PC can't handle GTA3.

They basically made it what Vista was SUPPOSED to be. And by god it was worth the wait.

Wrong! Their stopping XP support very soon. It's not as supported as Windows 7.

IMO, Widnows 7, is the current edition of XP. Vista was a disaster. And XP was my fav.

Windows 7 is the best OS microsoft has EVER released. It beats both XP and Vista(obv). Those that complain that windows 7 sucks, can't run it, windows 7 requires highers specs than XP, I've used XP for 6 years, including the time I downgraded from Vista, XP is pretty stable, though the looks are horrible and starts messing up after a while.

Windows 7 > *

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.

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.

What is better in Windows 7? I haven't tried it.

A bit off-topic:

If any Linux distro. supported everything it would be my favorite OS. Linux is obviously free, usually fast, and in my opinion the most powerful. Many things you need external applications for in Windows can be done from command line in Linux.

But when operating systems were only 30 mb hard drives were only about 6gb.

Now most people have at least a 160gb hard drive and the operating system is 15gb, it's not that bad, its worse, but not soemthign to really moan about.
