Immortal XP
(Page 1 of 4 )
Windows XP was not universally loved when it came out. How times have changed. Does that mean your operating system must change as well? If you're not ready to give up XP just yet, you're not alone. What's to become of your old operating system? Keep reading to find out.
Windows XP is without a doubt one of the most appreciated and enduring operating systems that ever existed in our world. However, following Moore's Law of the doubling of the number of transistors that fit on a chip every two years, which gives us our IT evolution, from this we can conclude that a similar trend is at work in operating systems. We consider the current situation of XP with this in mind. This question entered the daily agenda upon the launch of Vista.
Every few years a new operating system appears which will replace the old operating system, or at least one that's considered old. On paper this seems completely logical; however, after the launch of Windows Vista it became clear for many people that this can be a hard goal to achieve.
Throughout this article I shall try to debate why this could happen, what causes lead to this situation, how this influences the users (both companies and home users), and what possible solutions may come for us in the future. I will remain as objective as I can and try to present the situation as it is without supporting either of the two big operating systems: Windows Vista and Windows XP. Focus on the facts!
For a start, let's summarize the appearance and existence of each one so we can see what the problem is.
