Windows XP
 
is no longer going to be updated/supported by Microsoft.

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/w...d-support-help

I liked XP, I still use it lol. I liked how the website linked above suggests upgrading or buying a new comp.. it just seemed like some blunt instructions lol, I guess its overdue at this point though.

they have a special buy in support service for companies that need it while an upgrade is taking place. a majority of atms run their software on xp, and banks were freaking out until microsoft set up that support team for them.

using 8.1 and its pretty good. using a start button app and its basically windows 7 with better performance. Linux is still the superior operating system though.

also seconding prediction of hundreds of 0 day XP exploits, lots already discovered and dormant, once support goes

Yes Linux will always be my #1

I also had the start menu app with win 8 but ran into 2 many driver problems and said fuk it
