Feature Wishlist
What do you wish your computer would do that it doesn't currently do?One useful feature would be some type of guide to two-sided printing. Currently you have to figure it out yourself, but it would seem to be a simple matter to create some kind of prompt system where it would say, "Now put the pages just printed back into the tray, in this particular direction, etc." and would take care of keeping track of reverse print order issues for you.
I also wish that iTunes had a more powerful filtering system (perhaps using regular expressions) and that all albums would show up as a subfolder on the sidebar -- I disproportionately listen to albums for which I've made lists on the sidebar, and I don't want to go through and make lists for each individually. It would also be great if iTunes could run as a tray icon instead of a taskbar item, since I leave it running all the time so that my mp3s will be available through Anthony's computer (which has speakers, whereas mine does not).
I wish that my computer would automatically collect every PDF I look at in a subfolder in "My Documents," for easier reference.
So, computer dorks, tell me about the existing software that would help me with all this.
