Live dll updates so you no longer have to reboot or at least decrease the amount of reboots when you install something.

What I don't expect is that it will turn out to be Open Source...
I can't actually think of anything about 7 that irks me that much, I suppose different wallpapers on multi monitor setups would be nice... and ummm perhaps voice control would be shiny in the privacy of my own home... a built in voice to text system... Better sticky notes would be nice, the W7 ones seem not to be save-able.

How utterly unspecific and unhelpful.

Have you not used Windows 7? I haven't reboot after an app install for ages. And most updates (around 80%) don't require a reboot either!

I don't want to change the way I think about my computers. I'm perfectly happy with them. *sulk*
I'm not on Windows 7 yet. Sigh. Perhaps I should be...

Seconded - and installing video drivers without rebooting is just something i take for granted now. However, you can't stop developers from stuffing things up and insisting on a reboot!

That's so 2002. ;) Natal shows MS's thinking in there being no "controller" at all. Gates has prevously mentioned the R&D in Natal related technologies taking place for Office apps.
