One that wouldn't let you mess it up. They should keep the registry, but add a free registry editor that comes with the OS. One that wouldn't let you mess it up.

Its too fragile and doesn't bode well for folks who have no idea how to manage it - which is most folks. Those who claim they do, also find themselves reinstalling the OS. ;) I agree that isolation is a key, but only if it plays well with running apps and local storage, virtualization comes to mind for some reason. Virtualization's concept is a completely (although that is a contradiction) isolated computing environment within another computing environment basically reserved for high end hardware. If they can incorporate the concept to play well on legacy hardware and do it well, and allow for minimal problems with storing local content, then I think it could work. The other thing that would be helpful is for everyone to ban javascript. ;) I certainly feel they need to get rid of the Registry for one.

I hate UAC because its very time consuming. Even I think that Windows 8 should be designed to have different components working as sealed off silos.
