It's still June, they say, but no more June 2008 but June 2010. P.S. But I oversaw that indeed the extended lifespan is for low budget PC manufacturers only.

I cant see Microsoft stopping making of XP anytime soon. IIRC, they werent that happy with Vista themselves, so.

Vista is a drain and as we all know a flop.

I think Vista is dead to Microsoft. They're extending XP to cover themselves before releasing their new OS in 2010.

Ah, people, you understood that I was blowing the trumpet too early a bit...? XP will be delivered only to manufacturers of low budget laptops until June 2010 - beyond that, selling stop of XP continues to be june 2008. Patch support for XP is planned to stop in 2014.
Says the article which I read too fast in the first run.
