I sort of disagree on the "well done" aspect on account of the font rendering is butt-ugly and headache inducing and not consistent with the rest of the GUI at all. Drives me crazy when I try to use netbeans or another text-heavy java application on OS X.
My favorite boot camp experience was installing the latest version (whatever came with snow leopard) on my parents' iMac and discovering that the realtek audio drivers thought the microphone jack was the headphone jack and the headphone jack was the microphone jack. (This happened in both XP and Vista.) On my MacBook Pro, I had to role back the Sigmatel audio because, when I left the machine on for a while, the audio would become more and more static-y.
It seems like with every iteration of Boot Camp, I need to selectively role back a number of horrendous drivers to get full functionality, then install mobility-modded graphics drivers because the included ones are about a year out of date.
I don't understand why Safari still offers no automatic session restore. One little option in the prefs is all I ask! Every other browser supports this better than Safari. In Safari to restore my tabs I have to remember to choose a menu option that has no keyboard shortcut, and doesn't even always work (sometimes tabs are inexplicably blank).

Nope, triple checked prefs, still not there or I am blind.
