@jarrichvdv : What are you talking about? It is always a good idea to improve stability... But, Windows is the most stable OS on the market for a long time now!!! Did you see Windows crash for the last 10 years??
No no! don't talk about blue screen!!! Blue screen are caused at 99.9% by third party device driver... Which is not related to the OS himself...
Please don't expect Microsoft to be responsible to bad tired party application, this is not their responsibility... Not even the responsibility to Apple or Linux with their respective tired party application...
Its about more than 2 years I use Windows 7 (I used the beta version as primary OS for one years before the RTM release) and I never saw a crash of the OS, NEVER. I get a blue screen for the first time last week caused by a tired party device driver I installed at this time..
The be honest, I never saw Windows Crash since the last 20 years... Even Windows 3.1 never crashed... event Window 95 and 98 never crash ... a lot of blue screen in 95 and 98 but always caused by bad tired party device driver...
If Microsoft should work on about stability is only to find a way to isolate device drivers to help not causing blue screen when they do bad thing ... Devices drivers should run on protected memory memory space.
