    The [Win] + [Tab] feature ;P. No seriously, I like the new search feature in vista.

      You have a good versatile shutdown command. shutdown -i has a friendly GUI also.

            I guess Windows multimonitoring capabilities are fairly nice, uncomplicated and usually just work. (Compared to the xorg.conf tweaking you have to go through with Linux)

            I agree. Everyone in my office uses two monitors and it really increases productivity. And unlike a lot of MS crap, it always just works. I've never had an issue with it.

            I didn't get any requirements for the signature

              My love with Windows? As opposed to what other OS's lack? I don't know other OS's too well but as a programmer I find the System Tray quite useful in order to make discretely running programs/services easily available and configurable by the user.

                Somehow they missed that feature on my majorly screwed up XP system. It can take 3 to 15 minutes for a restart depending on its mood.

                  The most efficient use of the four keys that form the third row on your QWERTY keyboard. Along with CTRL key: Z: Undo X: Cut C: Copy V: Paste Wouldn't this be simply powerful and most commonly used key combination?

                  To add to that list: Ctrl+A -> Select all Ctrl+Y -> Redo I have actually wore out the left ctrl key on one keyboard because of the copy/paste shortcuts.

                    I didn't like it really, it was always standing in my way when I wanted to search for something fast.
