What is everyone doing about the shut down of Win XP
Discussion is locked
The smart ones moved on to something else long ago. I mean we've gone through Vista, Windows 7 and are now up to Windows 8.1 Update 1. Linux is another option that has been available at all times. If people have been sitting on XP all this time, they really only have themselves to blame.
Also have it dual boot with Kubuntu 12.10
Both are good systems for former windows users.
Other favorites in these forums seem to be Zorin and SolydK
Start looking at apple, less problems and keeps running. Any thing but Microsoft! Been using Microsoft since 1988 and looking back have spent a lot of $$ with these people.as I look back i think its time to move on. I'm sure there is a lot of old timers out there that feel the same. Apple has come a long ways.. really check it out and you will see for yourself s.
