If MS wants any success on the desktop market,
they'll need to change the filesystem.
Have you ever tried to explain to your mother
that she shouldn't rename a document while it
is opened?
Worse: When selecting media files, windows tends
to display a preview, and keeps the files open
for whatever reasons. When you select a media
file you simply cannot rename, move or delete it.
The abysmal file system design is also the cause
of many reboots. DLLs simply cannot be replaced
by installers as long as they're in use.
IMO MS Windows still has a long way to go before
it's ready for the desktop.
