"Windows 8 is still being disputed as either the product of a genius or a nerdy sadist but that doesn't mean Windows 9 isn't in the works. That said, how would you guys improve Windows if you could change anything about it? Has windows 8 improved or degraded your overall experience of the Windows platform? If you're not a Windows user, what features would you like to see in Windows for possible assimilation?"

    Workstation Mode wouldn't eliminate the need for Windows Defender. It would eliminate the need for Windows Firewall. The basic idea is instead of turning Windows Firewall ON, you turn OFF everything Firewall is protecting in the first place. Just like on any average Linux box, Netfilter doesn't even have to be loaded into the kernel if there simply aren't any listening daemons.
