I like this idea. MS should drop the price on Win 7 Starter / Home Basic to something like $9.95 after Win 8 is released. Then run a massive campaign to promote the security benefits of the "freshly outdated" version. If they do this well, they could easily rake in a few dozen million dollars without hurting the Win 8 market.
