Way too impressive goals considering the available time? And no possibility to re-evaluate them, because the whole hardware side was depending on some of the new stuff being ready. For example the new ideas for the UI were quite interesting, but it was quite obvious they had ship it way before it was ready. They were interesting, because they solve one (IMHO) big issue: ordinary users have hard time taking full use of their screen real-estate. Windows are hard to manage and people end up switching between full screen apps, while it would be in many case more effective to use them side-by-side. A tiling window manager would help here.
