I somewhat agree with Microsoft, but if, and only if, they provide another easy way to run commands and see all other applications... Either way, I think Windows 7 is too different from Windows 98 to ever go mainstream. People just want a better looking Windows 98. EDIT: Meant Windows 8, not 7

The problem with catering to the market that wants a better looking Windows 98 is there is no growth potential. Sure Microsoft would still make a lot of money, like they have with Windows 7, but the the entire PC market has weak growth forecasts so they cannot rely on x% growth in PCs to grow their sales.
