Hi there.

I'm running a project to find what kind of software people would most like to see in the future.( for your PC )

Has anyone got any ideas?

    it would help people & ISPs if isps supplied software that monitored & logged line stats as a lot of intermittent broadband problems are phone-line quality related.
    Broadband is a lot more sensitive to line quality than telephones. Routers know the information but dont keep a log.

    A spreadsheet that is completely under your own control which can import all your financial data upto the minute from your banking websites etc. I know egg do one online but i would rather be able to control this myself and not have a large institution monitoring my accounts.

    Good luck in your project.

    If by 'PC' you mean Windows. I would like to see iWork and BASH. Or I could just keep my Mac :)
    Windows is the path to the darkside...Windows leads to Blue Screen. Blue Screen leads to downtime. Downtime leads to suffering...I sense much Windows in you.

    a piece of software that will write what I mean rather than what I type with perfect spelling, grammar and its intended purpose... IE I say that I want to send a message to the call centre people "selling" the idea of a new complaints monitoring process is really to aid them improve customer service and so get more sales and so more commission in 50-75 words and it just does it for me :)

    A piece of software thats implanted into child molesters brain where if the pervert has nasty thoughts it sends a signal to a small explosive in the testicle area to explode which in return releases a hydroclauric acid capsule within the brain thus destroying said perv and any evidence that a piece of software was responsible.

    Most darwin awards are fatal, like the guy that tried to turn an RPG into scrap metal to sell using a car, then a sledgehammer.
