    Microsoft has given another lease of life to Windows XP only days before PC makers have to stop selling it.
    Windows XP reaches its end of life on 30 June but Microsoft has now said it can continue being sold until June 2010 but only on cheap desktops.
    The decision follows one made in April to extend the life of XP on low cost laptops until the same date.
    It comes as Dell, HP and Lenovo exploit loopholes in Microsoft's licensing terms to keep putting XP on machines.

    I guess from here on out, Linux will be my default OS then.

    Vista is so bad, no one steals it

    None of the resellers were accused of having stolen copies of Windows Vista.

    Microsoft say it will not lower Vista prices at Ukraine. It's already cost $2, can't be cheaper than DVD-R.

    a 16 core or 24 core cruncher pending on

    when intel/xeon releases the 8 and 12 core cpu's
