That wouldn't be too hard a thing to do actually. Unlike the old days we have virtualisation solutions today that can create a hardware environment that the OS is certain to function on.
So whatever the real hardware may be at that time, you can still enjoy a nice and stable legacy OS that will, in the case of Windows, run better and more comfortable under virtualisation than on real hardware.
The licensing part remains, of course, and that's where ReactOS comes in. A free OS to run your application on, installed on either physical or virtual hardware.
