To whoever said something about microsoft ending xp support this summer: ms just ended support for windows 2000 so there is no reason to suspect a stop in support for people running xp. The only announcement I have heard from microsoft is that they will stop selling windows xp licenses and this is not even bound to all, they have not ruled out selling licenses for lower end computers that are not quite vista capable. This is just ms refusing to let linux get a foot in the door

I never heard of that rumour, and I know they will stop selling Windows XP 17 months after the launch of Windows Vista, which is June 2008.

They will still provide support for Windows XP till 2014 if I remember correctly.
