We need to pick our priorities for what in their "standard" we want or need to 
follow. Some of the things they have in the standard actually go against what 
I, as a user, would want (for instance placing icons directly into the start 
menu). I'm sure its the same for others. Therefore, the priorities are 
reliability, security, availability, and supportability.

Q.  What if my application supports multiple operating systems? Do I need to 
support all Microsoft technologies to pass? 
   
A.  No. The majority of Certified applications support multiple operating 
systems. Specifications focus on testing for reliability, security, 
availability, and supportability. These are the core requirements for 
deploying applications on Windows Server operating systems.
