I rarely have to touch network connectivity, and as to file management, what's wrong with launching an explorer window? I will use Win+arrow to use a portion of the screen for a given app, and on mac I use moom for that.

And yes, I'm a bit of a fan of minimalism. I find that managing the apps I use the most, and navigating between open app instances to be easier in windows than anything else... the windows taskbar + start are great, though I prefer the win7 start over win10's, and didn't like win8's at all *(used classic shell).

I don't like the "rest" of windows as much as mac, but the base desktop is imho great... if windows integrated a common/shared menu like mac and unity, it'd be about the only thing I'd like to see added/changed.

I'd also love to see something closer to iterm2 ported to windows and linux... most of the alternatives I've used aren't as good imho. I use conemu in windows, and haven't found a console I really like in linux yet.

Oh man, I didn't know about the win+arrow functionality. I can now do one command to stick one window to a side of a multi-monitor setup! This is killer :)

One of my favorite things added in win7 iirc... once pinned to the right/left can up/down to use 1/4 the screen... I'm using a 40" 4k display, so it really works out nicely.
