  XP support services is set to go offline this mid-year to the disdain of many PC users all over the globe. With moves and petitions to bolster a move to get that deadline extended, they have fallen on deaf ears. While the market may become deprived of the said support systems, XP is still going to ship with new HP laptops till 2010 according to industry insiders who have negotiated with Microsoft for the said service extension. this comes as a blow to the software giant who has been hoping for similar progress with their Vista Operating system but with no bites.
  Some who have availed of the new software have opted to revert to the older XP due to dismal performance in terms of speed and other security issues. Microsoft on the other hand is fast-tracking the development of their next Operating System that are seen to be the next not take over the predominantly XP PC market. How people would accept the new OS when it is released can be anybody’s guess for even if the company does come out with a better OS peopel may opt to stay with their older system bullying them into re0instating support or lose their share of the market which their XP OS dominates to this day.
