The following article attempts to scare the users of XP into using what? http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/european-technology/ok-so-stick-with-window s-xp-but-how-big-a-risk-do-you-run/1627?tag=nl.e101&s_cid=e101&ttag=e101 Thousands of businesses failed to migrate from XP to Vista, for obvious reasons and now that they may have been willing to move to Windows7, Microsoft has removed any steps between XP and Windows8. Businesses are finding they have no where to go. Big business has no intension on embracing untried product with a dubious record so far. Just today a friend who works for a company called Soroc (they do all bank computer maintenance and installation), one I use to work for, says the banks are now seriously looking at moving their operation to Linux. If this is the case Microsoft may have made a major blunder in trying to force everyone to use Win8 by removing Win7. Even NASA is moving to Linux not Windows. ;-) https://www.linux.com/news/featured-blogs/191-linux-training/711318-linux-fo undation-training-prepares-the-international-space-station-for-linux-migrati on Jim
