Usually it has to skip a version to be good -> XP (good), Vista (bad), Windows 7 (good), Windows 8 (bad), Windows 9 (good?!)

I've heard talks about windows 9 but also talks about 8.2 so who knows. The one thing I can't see happening and people should accept is the start button returning. There's always articles about it but the reason it hasn't returned is Microsoft want's people using the metro start interface. Now I'm not the biggest metro (or whatever it's now called) fan but I think it works as a start menu great - hit start, type and get what you want from apps, settings and more. It basically is the windows 7 start menu search but advanced.

For the next version of Windows I'd love to see a better way to rearrange tiles on the metro interface as you can swap between right and left but if you try and swap up and down it just moves the tile above to the right instead of swapping places with the bottom one.

Agree, it's as if the windows 8 was a trial version for the windows 9 OS.

Obvious that Microsoft have started working on their next major release of Windows. It's been like for many many years

You will see the 8.2 update first.
