You can't say that Microsoft don't have a sense of humour. |

wise to escape although microsoft will continue to offer some malware updates in the form of signatures for at least another year.

The British Government have just paid Microsoft over 5 million just so they can keep their computers on windows xp for another 12 months. In return they get security updates.

I saw that. It is ridiculous. They must not have planned ahead properly. What a waste of money.

the bizarre thing is, they believe the deal will actually save them money. Their reason behind that is unsurprisingly rather complicated lol The computeractive magazine advised them that they would have been better off putting the money towards upgrading, but of course the government knows best.

paid updates for xp are also available to the public. But even with them its still far less secure online than windows 7 or 8 so its just a no brainer all around lol. XP was a great operating system, of that can be no doubt, but its had its day and its not fit for the modern world. You cant polish a turd after all lol

the crazy thing is, you would actually be safer going online with windows 98 today than XP cos nobody targets the 9x operating systems today lol
