It's easy to think all companies rely on apache on Linix as you do. However, in the "real world" a bazillion companies depend on Windows to run stuff. And a lot of those companies depend on the software that was built for windows 3.1, NT, 2000 and XP. Not the latest and greatest. As such, MSFT has to maintain backward compatibility. If they start screwing with corporate customers and backwards compatibility they're going to have the department of justice so far up their asses...well you get the picture.
Windows runs the world. I'm sorry I know the internet is hosted on a lot of Linix servers but in small, medium and large businesses there a LOT of windows servers keeping everything running.
