Pointless
"MS have been doing everything they can to get people to move forward" - meh.
The problem is as much the fault of users as it is Microsoft, and the entire commercial approach to operating systems. Microsoft's "best effort" was to get people to PAY "to move forward." The users however received "that" OS "free" with their system and ("ooh! shiny, so pretty") expected it to "just work." Or were coerced into buying a new OS they really didn't want because some program critical to their work or simple little minds had been changed to "require" a new version of the OS. So they grudgingly spent as little as possible to get what was required, or they simply bought a new chunk of hardware with the "free" OS installed.
