Xp Downgrade extended.
« on: July 12, 2010, 09:28:22 PM »
Microsoft said on Monday that they have extended the right to downgrade to XP from W7 For another 10 years. Microsoft usually terminates downgrade rights immediately. This is the second time they have changed their mind. First they said that users wanting to downgrade only had 6 months to do it after the release of W7. Read more about this by clicking below:

Yeah, all the places I have worked still use xp, for alot of companies upgrading all their systems would be a bit of a headache, but it has to be done sooner or later I guess or they would all still be running win98 or something silly like that.

I would imagine a lot of places are waiting a bit longer to upgrade to be sure most bugs are out of the o/s then upgrading will start more frequently.

If Microdaft are extending the downgrade to 10 years, that must say something about the number of users loyal (for whatever reason) to XP...

Xp is/was a great system for sure. Microsoft's best until W7 As far as I am concerned anyway.
