Not sure if this is legit or not (care to comment Andy Lark?) but reports say that Dell will continue offering Win XP way past Microsoft’s cut off date. Seems user demand will have XP offered on high end Dell business machines – so the consumers get the “top shelf” product that is claimed to be better and stronger.
Hmmm – not sure if I concur with MS’s self-analysis!
