Happy Birthday Windows

As a newsletter reminds me
Windows 1.0 hit the market in November 1985, which makes the Windows operating system family twenty years old. Time really does fly when you're having fun, and I've been having fun (sometimes amidst frustrations) with Windows for a long time. Want a quick reminder of what that first version looked like? Check out these screenshots:

To celebrate this milestone, eWeek published a wish list for Windows - features or functionality they'd like to see. Read it at
http://www.wxpnews.com/rd/rd.cfm?id=051115TI-Wishlist
and let us know what's on your own wish list for Windows,
anyone care to put a few ideas on this thread?
