"What should my OS do for me?"
"What do I expect from an OS?"

"My OS is trying to rule me"

customization
file management
hardware compatibility
interface
microsoft
operating system
os development
os functions
performance
shell
software access
system settings
technologyrant
tweaks
user control
user experience
user needs
user preferences
windows 7
windows features

homegroup
ipx protocol
media center
media sharing
microsoft
network
network issues
network map
network wizard
permissions
private network
public network
security settings
shared folders
technologyrant
user experience
