There is no room in the OS market for another Windows-alike OS. OS X has its hardware niche, but that's it.
It's called a monopoly, you know?
And that's the only way for it to survive. Your model would just fail on the market, as others did before. Think about OS/2 or BeOS. Both were sophisticated approaches, the first one was even out before Windows 95.
