We should just drop that entirely.

They don't depend on Windows, they depend on our tools that detect Windows.
nor can we expect all users to own a windows or require it from
them to obtain it legally or illegally just so this get's tested.
We don't have to have this tested. If there are no bug reports, there's probably nothing to fix. OTOH, sure, it's better when it gets tested. If we have the means.
Red Hat can just keep this criteria for RHEL if that's the reason for it
The reason is that Windows dual-boot is very important for our users and we are usually capable of making sure it works. If you want to have no user base, sure, dump Windows support.
Our user base is Fedora users not Windows users or dual booting users
and more or less every shipped hardware in the past five years has
supported virtualization
( even more so HW requirements for running windows Vista/7/8 not sure if
XP is still supported by Microsoft ) which is the area we should be
focusing on supporting well as in running Fedora in other OS
supported/provided virtualization or running other OS in the
virtualization we provide ( there is no such thing as support in Fedora ).
Quite frankly dual booting is a thing of the past and it should be
dropped from the criteria.
