Australian Personal Computer reports that Windows XP won't be available to customers after the year's end.
I'm not sure it's going to matter. It's so hard to find an XP machine in the shops now, most people are getting Vista whether they want it or not.
One thing this will do is drive the sale of Windows XP boxes late in the year. So I guess that's good news for the channel and retailers. Assuming they can get stock.
I did a Vista set up yesterday. One thing that concerns me about it is how slow the system is. Even with a gig of RAM it ran like treacle.
I'd recommend going with Vista if I could find a clear, identifiable advantage in the new system. Right now, I can't. So if you can, get an XP box.
