No corp are going the Windows 8 road. Somes wants to skip Win 7 too. MS is just acknowleging this by extending XP support up to Windows 9 out date.

Windows XP support was extended, but only for antimalware products for Windows XP, not for Windows XP itself.

 

[konqithedragon]

yes, the article has changed since I posted it to reflect that.

Microsoft announces to give up business in order to give more users a chance to enjoy Linux.

Wish I had install xp on my old lap top to connect it by wifi on dlink router ...on win7 it is imposible even if I try open network..

Doesn't matter for me, I deactivated all network related stuff in my WinXP partition as soon as I installed Linux Mint as my primary OS.

It's funny to see, how many people skipped Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8.

Seems like Wii U is more successful than Windows 8 .

I went straight to windows 8.1 and downloaded a Windows Xp software pack to replace some of the rediculous window styles

No, not really. There are way more windows pc out there with w8 than WiiUs. WiiU is a dead console already.

AIDS only ruins your life but kills you slowly. OSX and macbooks are the equivalent of black death and spanish flu. 

I don't bad mouth apple's silly products is because they have been ridiculous since the begining of time and I would not touch them with a ten foot pole; Microsoft on the other hand is trying to force radioactive wastes down my gob and he's not even washed his hands, such disrespect. I hate the fact that every new laptop comes with that blasted windows 8.
