I don't think MS has to scrap Windows and start from scratch. Apple didn't even start over from scratch. The Carbon API is an OS X port of the "Classic" API that Apple stopped selling over a half decade ago and stopped supporting last week. The Carbon version has also been abandoned in 32-bit land. Expect it's support to end in 2 to 4 years.

I think that MS should take THAT page from Apple's book and start depreciating API sets (like any Direct X before 7 and the entire Win16 API) and port their new APIs to a BSD based filesystem running on a their 64-bit NT kernel.
Backward compatibility all the way back to PC-DOS 1.0 may be what MADE Microsoft, but it will be what kills it if it doesn't start pruning their code base (regardless of how many lazy grey-beard developers it will piss off).
