    2 years today # XP support ends (unless # extend): http://ur1.ca/8ylk5 Millions of users will switch to !Linux distros soon?

      @sebsebseb But XP might still hold a significant share. I wonder how many XP users care about official support, or the absence of it.

        @rajitsingh Quite a lot of # users care about viruses and other malware, but many think their computer is clean, when probably isn't.

        @rajitsingh Probably most # XP users care about official security updates at least to some extent, but...

        @rajitsingh do they care enough to stop using # XP online when official support has run out, is the thing.

      most people use their PC like their TV, as a whole thing. There will be XP around as long as those PC just make it work.

        @grawok Well yes # XP will be used by many for a long time after support is over , but many may also start using Desktop !Linux :).
