Microsoft to Windows XP diehards: Just under 3 more years' support
'Eventually, there comes a time to give us more money'
Not if can help it. I have no intention of ever renting any of Microsoft's software, ever again.
"Things get better, faster. And eventually, it's time to move from good enough to something much better."
I've already done that, my pimary Operating System is Linux Mint. I keep Windows around because at the moment I have need of some software that by design works only on Windows. I've been using better and faster since 2000.
Support for XP officially ends on 8 April 2014, when security patches and hotfixes for all versions will be canned for good.
I should have removed Windows from my computer well before then.
