Windows is not a shell. And also, the shell in Windows is pulling some stuff out of bash. In Windows XP, the shell has tab compleiton. Bash is better than the windows shell still. And I almost always see bash. So we do have a standardized shell. We can have a cowboy_neal based logo through framebuffer. I don't understand what you mean by "faster performance(its starting to get fragmented)". I use gentoo and it runns very quickly with a preemptive kernel and low latency. There are many different file systems avalile with different speeds. I think we are getting plenty of new functality(DRI, Framebuffer to list a few new things).
