None of those seem of use. IE7 Protected mode is more inconvenient than helpful, User Access Control is a terrible thorn in the users' side, ASLR is only really useful if you've bought terrible RAM, kernel patch protection is not anything that the user ever has to worry about, and TPM, while maybe useful to enterprise users, the technology already exists in XP (encrypted NTFS).
The idea is that an operating system shouldn't need as much RAM and processing power as Vista does. If an OS does not run smoothly on 128 MB of RAM, it is broken. All the OS is doing is allowing the user to run applications, it isn't supposed to be one itself.
Yup. Windows ME is and was useless...But for its time, I say give it a break! It was a long time ago in technology terms and although it was not very good. It was better than 98 in 'some areas', albeit not all areas.For me though...Linux wins everytime. more of a pita to setup if your doing a custom kernel, but once its running, its so reliable its just not funny!
