Microsoft has announced it will stop providing support for Windows XP and that by next June it will no longer provide security updates. Amazingly, the 13 year old operating system is estimated to be used by 28% of computers and is the second most popular OS behind Windows 7 (49%). Pretty crazy that it's still so popular

Considering that Vista got a very bad reputation I don't think it's that surprising. |

From my experience with it not really but my PC went from Windows XP to Windows 7 since by the time I bought it Windows Vista wasn't really in store anymore. |

I guess I do, I'm not really that well versed in PC's but Windows 7 seems to work fine. ![]() I think it's costumary to skip the Windows that comes after the good one, like you skip Vista and go straight to Windows 7. |

I had vista for a while, don't really remember it, or care. I remember having windows 95 on our computer, and my dad still has the windows 98 boot disk, which is a floppy disk.

XP SP2 was a solid OS. Vista... Nooo. 7 is OK, and I will stick with it on my PCs. I normally use my Mac and have started playing with Linux lately XD |

Yeah, but I'd guess in the USA, Canada and other's Apple is popular when it comes to operative systems. I only know one person here that uses a Mac. |

I wonder if xp and windows in general is more popular for businesses. It'd be interesting to see how the market divides between personal computers and corporate ones. |

Well, most likely more popular due to compatibility. In 9 years of owning a Mac though I have not had one tech issue to deal with. |
