"Simplifying" generally means "hiding the details from the user," which I don't like. What I want from Windows is for it to work as advertised. Never a blue screen of death. Never a driver that can't be found. Never an incorrect driver loaded. Drivers available for any/all peripherals. And, dare I say it, Multiple Master fonts available. The ability to really add a whole lot of USB and Firewire peripherals that all work on a single machine, etc.
