I think you give Microsoft too much credit.
The reason XP lasted so long is because Vista was a disaster. I really think bwire is one of only 3 or 4 people on the planet that actually likes it.
Software engineers really had not much choice than to continue writing apps that worked on XP for as long as they did. It wasn't much of anything that MS did to extend the useful life of XP other than release a crappy OS as its replacement.
