Post Windows XP gets the final patch.
Support for the venerable Windows XP operating system ends this Tuesday.

Yeah, that means that there will be no more official security updates and bug fixes for the operating system from Microsoft.

... our time together was short. But I'll remember you always, Windows XP-tan.

I may not be a government yet. Still, I'll take good care of you.

I know a lot of people who use Windows think that XP was the last good Microsoft OS. I like 7, but XP was admittedly better. And no one likes 8 or Vista. So, *sigh*, I guess that's it then. Everyone has to admit what I've known for over a decade. It is the Age of Linux.

One of my computers still uses windows 98. It's kept always offline and has good defenses, so I think I'm safe.... somewhat.

I like windows 8. I think people are just being a bit too stubborn about the whole phone like UI instead of the start menu.
I didn't like the xp+ start menues to begin with, so to me it didin't matter. I liked the classic start menu from windows 2000 and earlier, so I already had my share of butthurt in vista when they completely removed the traditional start menu.
I also don't care for "apps", but they can easily be removed and replaced by regular applications. Once this is done, Windows 8 is like a more advanced windows 7.
