I completely agree. Their evolution seems to be going according to: we've told people what to do for the maintenance of their PC, and they aren't doing it, with the next OS, this work will be done for them. I was used to defragging my computer once in a while and I know that many people do this, mainly because they had no idea what it was. With Vista it is done automatically, and even if you do it manually, it is a process that runs in the background, so you don't see what it is doing.
Now I have a laptop with Vista and a laptop with Ubuntu, and I don't plan on buying the next version of Win OS. I have a netbook with Windows 7 at work and I'm not impressed. I don't think that this new OS is any better.
