Falcon1986 Posted April 12, 2007 Report Share Posted April 12, 2007 Found this at apcmag.com:Windows XP to be phased out by year's end despite customer demandComputer makers have been told they'll no longer be able to get Windows XP OEM by the end of this year, despite consumer resistance to Vista and its compatibility problems...

TheTerrorist_75 Posted April 12, 2007 Report Share Posted April 12, 2007 An end for the manufacturers, but not for the consumer. The prices may go up at ebay, newegg and etc. as the end of the year approaches though. I'm thinking about buying a 3 pack of Pro and Home OEM. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

shanenin Posted April 14, 2007 Report Share Posted April 14, 2007 An end for the manufacturers, but not for the consumer. The prices may go up at ebay, newegg and etc. as the end of the year approaches though. I'm thinking about buying a 3 pack of Pro and Home OEM.I want to stock up also. I wonder how much longer newegg(or other retailers) will be selling them for. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheTerrorist_75 Posted April 14, 2007 Report Share Posted April 14, 2007 I imagine they will sell them until support is stopped. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
