This should work well, but need lot of work from the Microsoft and other parties part:
- Microsoft create a development environment as powerful as Visual Studio. You create "native" Windows applications that has full but controlled access to disk files, system resources, Internet connection...
- Application are native in a way they integrate nicely in the sidebar, menu, have nice graphics and animations...
- Type of these apps can be for example "Drop Box"
- Microsoft build an online app store and a desktop app store app. where users can download, purchase, rate and review apps.
As a user, I browse apps and select the one that fits the need. The app should blend with my Windows theme, be user friendly and fast.
Considering the huge number of Windows users this can turn into a multi-billion dollar market. This will especially make decent profit for single developers.

Perhaps this could become a raison d'etre for Silverlight.
