We have pretty good backwards compatibility too, to my knowledge it's actually better.

My point was, MS has backwards compatibility all the way down to an OS that has no sense of users and permissions and that is why Windows, even nowadays, has these problems. If you get rid of the DOS legacy stuff, you can have decent user permission and security in place, but too much shit relies on legacy code, so they keep it.
