Information Goodbye Windows XP

Microsoft has officially announced that XP will go off the market in June 2008. That means that you can't buy XP anymore and it will also be hard (actually impossible) to find a computer pre-installed with XP.

And trust me, you will be forced to switch to Vista. Since Microsoft will make new softwares and games incompatible with XP and previous Windows.

They will also stop activating new XPs eventually. Probably after all the support terms end.

So say good bye to XP and say hello to Vista! Or Windows 7. Depending on when you switch.

I don't know why but people just complain about Vista. Well actually hate Vista. WTF? I use Vista and I like it. Sure it did have a few compatibility issues but it hasn't that bad. I didn't have a lot of problems with that.

That's typical of Micro$hit to do that ! Vista may look better..but many software dont work with it...beside when you are a gamer..you need XP...not Vista...

What are you talking about? You need Vista to play need games. DirectX. Ring a bell? Besides Microsoft will make all the games incompatible with XP.

But that mean they take your free will....wich systme u want as in XP or Vista..shouldn't be forced upon you...if they will do that..everyone will keep their version of XP safe away from praying eyes and MicroShit spy...
And therefore...that would only encourage hacker and the like to copy XP and ditribute it ( and Im ok with that frankly)...

Vista is bugged....go see the help forum for Vista...and the one for XP...

vista is good on a fast enough computer. but on older computers it is really SLOOOOWWW. i installed it on an old crappy laptop of mine and it was almost unusable. of course it met like 1/4 of the system requirements.
