It was the wrong link - sorry.  Essentially (now I've lost the right one), it 
said

"The following is copied from todays Sydney Morning Herald supplement, The 
Guide - ICON Digital Living - Author Simon Tsang.

XP LIVES (Again) - Windows XP has been given a stay of execution (of sorts) 
with Microsoft backtracking on an earlier edict to stop the older operating 
system being shipped with new machines after June 30.

The deadline was itself an extension due to consumer demand. However, at the 
Computex trade show in Taipei on June 4, Microsoft announced that computer 
companies can continue to ship Windows XP with low-cost PC's until Jun 2010, 
by which time the next version Windows 7, will be available, allowing 
customers to skip Vista altogether."
