And Microsoft will soon be abandoning Vista Support after they release another service pack for it to make it run more like XP.
Then when they release Windows 7 (yet another new OS) early next year they will abandon Vista. As long as the Department of Defense and large companies hang on to XP which many are doing, Microsoft will have to continue supporting it. What they say and what they do are two different things. Both Dell and HP still sell XP in there business sections.
Of course Microsoft also said they were abandoning support and you would not be able to buy XP after June of 2008 and obviously that didn't happen either.
