Interesting info, thanks!
Never thought there was still so much widespread use of XP.
My laptop, which I am using now to type this, is still running XP Pro.
It has always worked well for me for many years, except some shutdown issues where it hangs and hangs.
Laptop came with the most useless OS, Vista. OK, second useless, ME was by far the worst!
After the plagues of problems I toasted Vista and put XP on. Worked great after that.
I have Win 7 on my home desktop. Yeah 7 is good, stable and works well.
I have never seen the need to upgrade my laptop XP.
I didn't know they were stopping support for it. Oh well, I guess it is due!
I'm up for a new laptop one of these days. This one is 5 - 6 years old? I forget. Only a matter of time before a catastrophic failure.
Until then I'm sticking with XP on it.
Now don't laugh at me for this one, but my webserver at home is still running Win2K! And it's running on a Pentium 800!!Haha. Don't wanna change it because then I will have to totally redo my website. Too much work!!
