    XP is now stopped production and is obsolete.

    I was just wondering, since OEMs can continue to install Windows XP until 30 Jun 2010, and extended support is available for SP3 until 8 Apr 2014. That's why I asked if this thread was just flamebait.

    It's important to spell M$ with three K's, lots of dollar signs, and it is -SHAFT not -SOFT.

    I am going to close this thread before it gets further out of hand(and before the XP or Vista fanboys start bickering).

    Please do research before making any decision whether its deciding on what Operating system to use or what computer to buy.
