Because there will be no more Win32 API use from Microsoft in the
future.
Given that in Vista about 40 out of 2000 core libraries are .NET,
and that none of the Office suite is written in .NET, I guess
that is a far far future. If ever. But that aside:
Vista is the OS and has to maintain backward API compatibility with
previous Windows etc.
More and more GUI stuff of the OS will be in .NET though.
I'm speaking of MS new APIs and products.
Yes, which are dropped after a few years, see e.g. VB.
