Answer 1

Not yet, because the OS is still unmanaged. If MS finally do what their labs have been talking about for years and produce a fully managed OS then it will. That OS won't be backwards compatible though. They would have to produce managed versions of Office, IE, etc first. They will have to produce a virtual machine to run unmanaged apps. The pain would be something similar to the move from Mac OS9 to OSX.
