Compatibility is the bread and butter and jam (:-)) of microsoft!

I'm not saying get rid of compatibility in one shot. This has to happen in phases -- a managed transition. But MSFT isn't even trying this. What is it afraid of? That everyone is going to bail from Windows overnight? Where to? Linux? OS X? I don't think so. This "compatibility is bread and butter" mindset is just management's excuse for not having the guts to let go ;-)
