M$ says:" XP No more by 2008
Yeah, I know, I have been away from my blog for a very long time. I would have wished to take a longer break from blogging but i could not resist writing about this article that i read in DVORAK's blogsite. The article says about the plan of our good 'ol pal bill and his gang in Redmond to stop selling Win XP OEMs by the end of this year, this is despite the steady demand for Win XP in the market.
What the heck is M$ trying to do? if there's still demand for XP then don't kill the OS yet. I understand that Win Vista is not yet being (fully) accepted by the common PC-User but phasing out a OS like XP. See, stopping the distribution of OEMs like XP is the first step to killing the OS. it's like a disappearing act for programs.
What M$ should do is to make Vista more affordable to the public, and if Vista IS as good as the Redmond claims, naturally, consumers WILL buy that damn OS. Lesson # 1 never... NEVER... and I repeat NEVER force a product to the public. another thing, let us not forget that M$ has control over about 80% of COmputers in the World, and if M$ says that VIsta is the way to go, then Vista It is... but forcing people to go Vista and killing the OS that they once said is THE BEST is NOT a classy thing to do.
Note to Bill Gates:
I know how much you'd like to go to the moon, heck! you already have enough money to go and build a hotel there. Vista will be embraced by the consumers no matter what. it's just the way it is. be patient.
