Microsoft Ends Support for Windows XP Service Pack 2
Support for Windows XP SP 2 has now ended.
Requiescat in Páce (Rest in Peace), Windows XP. Microsoft’s support for Windows XP SP2 ends today. XP SP2 Users will no longer see any notifications about new security updates because there just won’t be any! What should you do to stay secure? Consider upgrading to Service Pack 3 or upgrade to Windows 7 as quickly as possible.
Windows XP – it’s amazing how many people are still using this old-timer, especially since its release was back on August 24, 2001. In nine years, XP is still one of the most famous and popular operating systems of all time. However, I think most will agree it’s time to say a few kind words and put our old friend to sleep for good.
“Some of us will miss you, others won’t, yet the fact remains you’ve been a faithful, long running servant. It was only a matter of time but the fact is, you just don’t look as sexy as Windows 7 Aero. Sorry old friend. Goodbye.”
Well, if you’re one of those who fear change and still just aren’t ready to say goodbye, Microsoft has your back with continued support for Windows XP Service Pack 3. If you’ve already said goodbye however and want to learn more about a modern operating system, then take a look at our Windows 7 Tutorials.

You know what tho, Windows XP has been a good OS and I actually have no plans of removing it from my Netbook anytime soon. I’m already running SP3 and it’s fast, reliable and does everything I need. Why upgrade?
