I do like this feature of Windows, although it sometimes leads to the following non-optimal workflow:

Start -> i-t-u-n-e-s -> Hit Enter -> Am now reading "About iTunes" -> Alt-F4 -> Start -> i-t-u-n-e-s -> Choose the second result this time.



Yeah it is horrible at knowing what you are more likely to want. Doesn't even require that much thought, just put applications first.


It's improved in Win8. The results are sorted in some kind of MRU or frequency of use order. So the first time you have to look to not launch iTunes Help, but the second time iTunes will be on top.
