FAQ: your dream features

Last week's Friday Afternoon Question drew an interesting response when I asked what technology you missed the most.

We heard some old corkers, and a few people decided to give us long responses. That's why I chose Tribble as the winner, thanks to the very succinct and business-like answer: "when did this become Friday afternoon essay ? For the succinctness I vote for the bug joystick - even though I preferred the quickpro". We'll be in touch!

Sorry for the lateness of today's FAQ people - but I'll keep it open for a few days. With the big news this week being Microsoft's launch of Vista, which drew a fairly muted response (waiting five years tends to take the shine off anything, I find). Bill Gates gave it the "bigger, better, faster" routine and told us that the wow starts now. But there's always room for more, so:

What is the dream feature that nobody has put into your computer?

Do you want Vista to make the tea? Should OS X know when you walk in the room? Is there something they've all forgotten but seems blindingly obvious. Tell us, and the best one wins a prize.

Warning: this is not a space for fanboy ranting - I genuinely want to hear innovative ideas that we haven't seen before - bad answers do not win prizes.
