Guest Howard Kaikow Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 Hmmm, if we can get paramedics, or better yet, Gregg House out to Redmond today, I wonder if that could prevent the assisted suicide of Win XP Pro expected today?
Guest Bob I Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 Re: Is XP Pro still scheduled to meet its fate today? I, for one, will be glad to see July 1 arrive.

Guest Howard Kaikow Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 Re: Is XP Pro still scheduled to meet its fate today? Newegg is still listing retail version of Windows XP Pro today.

Saw an interesting story on Fox News about a consumer group in the process of putting together a class action lawsuit against Microsoft for taking XP off the market. The focus of the lawsuit is the instability of the Vista operating system and severe compatiblity issues with mainstream business software. The story also talked about rumblings from some in congress about another investigation into Microsoft with regards to Vista issues and Microsoft's (possibly illegal) pushing of manufacturers to discontinue support. Whether it's true or not, there is a HUGE perception of the general public about how horrible and unstable Vista is. Sadly Balmer's bullying used to be the stick to Gates' carrot, but with Gates completely gone now... Microsoft is in for a very rocky next few years.

For publicity, I assume. An actual suit might conceivably make it into court about the time Vista's replacement is beginning to look dated.
