nah, they had Drawbridge running on Midori, which allowed nearly perfect app compat. it really was a case of internal politics as far as I know.

though another way of looking at it is that rewriting the entirety of Windows in Midori would be been a monumental feat, and by the time Satya became CEO it was clear Windows wasn't the future of the company, so that kind of investment didn't make sense.
