Where are all the new abstractions? Where are all the new abstractions? This is what's going to keep this industry alive. I guess it starts at the operating system level. Hopefully with Longhorn comes many new (worthwhile) abstractions.

How about some new paradigms of what should happen when one hits F3? Nothing beats the fun of mystery behaviour when F3 is invoked (especially in MS apps).
