Question: is anyone planning to fully support the "after-end-of-life" XP market?
I've had enough "change", thank you. Microsoft will no longer support XP after April, 2014, what can I do?
I'm age 64, an engineering consultant, and I use XP-Pro-SP3. All of my old-old software (Office 2000, Photoshop CS3, CadLite, etc.) all work fine on XP. All of my old-old printers and other periperhals are just fine, thank you.
It's taken me 10 years to self-train and master every subtle detail and nuance of XP, and I don't want to change.
I want to make what I've got work safely and productively for another 2 or 3 years.
I'm not alone in this, and many old timers want to stay with XP.
My question - - This certainly looks like a business opportunity, and I'm surprised that there is not an "XP-Forever" suite of software for sale someplace within the mainstream world of add-on software.
I have read that this French company [removed by moderation] sells something called [removed by moderation] - - You pay, you sign up, and you get a daily dose of replacement patches similar to Windows Essentials upgrades. However, I have written to them, and they are too busy setting up major XP corporate clients... to busy to accept one small office like mine, which has 5 XP machines.
So, I'm looking for some suggestions - - is anyone planning to support the "after-end-of-life" XP market?
Thanks,
IW
