I read somewhere Windows XP was being called the “Wolverine” of operating systems. It just won’t die. 🙂
Be that as it may, if you’re one of the owners of a Windows XP based computer, and want to be able to migrate to Windows 7 (In my opinion the best operating system Microsoft has ever released), you only have until the end of October, per Microsoft. That’s currently the deadline for end of sales of computer with Windows 7 Basic, Home Premium and Ultimate pre-installed.
So that means between now and October is just about the right time to put that old computer to rest and get a new one.
Contrary to what the sales might be pushing right now, Windows 7, not Windows 8, is the most used operating system right now, and with good reason.
