* Write a driver for my scanner that only ran on XP so that it runs on Linux.
* Make ANY tool or program I am using run on Linux.
* SAP -- the chaotic GUI of this piece of SW is making me mad.
* Windows -- make it slim and simply working without the need to buy a new computer together with all the peripherals with each new version; make it even more safe to use; improve the garbage collection of the system itself (so that it's not inflating to tens of GB just because of the updates); remove that stupid file sorting method from the system.
* Create a piece of SW to track down all those SPAM nonsense and those ransomware guys so their websites are put offline by the executives and the guys themselves are locked away for a long time.
