Looking at rhe Article:

"The agreement is worth £5.548 million, and covers 'critical' and 'important' security updates for Windows XP, as well as Office 2003 and Exchange 2003, which also go out of support next Tuesday "

Taken from the Daily Telegraph Article published on their website 3/4/2014 - I have no connection with the Telegraph.

Weep my Child / and anyone else, weep.

"......Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time,
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out brief candle.
Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury...."

Anyone who has worked in an area of Government understands the lack of insight at work here...
