Should I stay with Windows XP after April 8th?

So I understand that XP support will cease after April 8th, I am tempted to stick with it for a while as I am going to have to replace my ageing computer anyway but can't afford it just yet.

Presumably there would only be a big problem if they discovered a major security flaw after the support has stopped which left computers vulnerable.

Also, when I do upgrade, I understand that Windows 8 is basically Windows 7 with touch screen capability which I don't want/need, so would I be better sticking with Windows 7?

Thankyou for any thoughts/feedback
