Hi Everyone,
I was just wanting to know what new features you would like to see in your favourite OS(e.g Mac,Linux,Windows).

Thanks,

I would like to see blu ray codecs built into Windows so I don't have to rely on twitchy third-party software.

The ability to use different dpi settings on different monitors, support for file systems like HFS and extended (ext2, ex3, ext4) on Windows, fast boot times, as compnovo said bluray codecs, and maybe a better browser (like Chrome or Firefox).

Why?

Btw, I ultimately switched to Chrome because Firefox was pissing me off (a bit slow on my laptop, and Chrome seems to work more smoothly in general).
