What people want from Windows

Interesting picture here, if it proves to be true of course, the feature request list for Windows 7 highlighted on NeoWin.

These things always depend on the kind of people filling them in. What I want in my software is often very different to what ordinary users may want.

Having said that there are some very interesting suggestions including:

Reopen closed tabs in Internet Explorer. This is a really useful feature in both Opera and Firefox. I tend to use tabs as a basic todo list. Anything I want to write about is left in an open tab, so carrying them over from session to session is essential.

Manual duplex printing option. I think this may be slightly redundant now as most printers I've looked at recently can do this, but still very useful. And green to as it saves paper.

Make all Windws Updates descriptive. Nice idea, but I'm not sure if I'd understand all of them!
