WinXP: only 6 months left
With WinXP officially being taken out behind the shed & shot in April what are current users intending to do?
Alright, the Win8 Metro interface is a dog without a touchscreen, but throw on something like Classic Shell and you have a perfectly usable Windows system.
FWIW here in Oz Win8 upgrade is still available for $68 from Officeworks.
No, I'm not flogging Win8 (I use Linux) but you need to plan to use something other than XP come April as continuing to use it is not a sensible option. Note that WIn7 only has 15 months of mainstream support left.
