"Windows 8 is still being disputed as either the product of a genius or a nerdy sadist but that doesn't mean Windows 9 isn't in the works. That said, how would you guys improve Windows if you could change anything about it? Has windows 8 improved or degraded your overall experience of the Windows platform? If you're not a Windows user, what features would you like to see in Windows for possible assimilation?"

I'm not a robot like you. I don't like having disks crammed into me... unless they're Oreos, and then only in the mouth.

1. Never ever allow an application to bring itself to focus. Flash the taskbar, put a popup in the application window but don't switch from whatever I'm using to another app because it requests it. Goddamn that annoys me.
2. Explorer UI to be re-written asynchronously. Sweet $deity the number of times I've had to wait for it to finish waiting for a response from something I don't care about (usually a mis-click on the empty dvd/cd drive). And if once instance locks up, all its siblings join it in a show of solidarity ... *muttermutter*

YES!
On my (Win8) work machine, I am constantly interrupted in the middle of typing something because of some completely unimportant pop-up.
Would love it if there was no way for something innocuous to disrupt both my train of thought and my actual typing.
