Dear Bill Gates: Fixes and Features for Vista | |

I'm sure that anyone who has used Windows has at least one pet peeve they'd like to see remedied. Although I like Windows in its latest incarnation, I'm no exception. Without further ado, here's a look at four problems I'd like to see fixed in Windows Vista: 1. Focus, focus, focus. The way Windows decides what window or application is active is one of my long-standing gripes. Example: Say you need to reference a Web page while editing a Microsoft Word document. As you type, the browser is launched, but you're not paying attention to it. As you continue to type in Word, you realize midsentence that you're on your home page and have been typing in the address bar. Exasperated, you have to click to your document and retype the sentence from where Windows changed the active window. | ||
