This wont effect my personal machines but I know it has caused some problems in my office. 

 

It would appear that everyone in this companies IT dept are either not paying any attention or world champion procrastinators. Its not like this was sudden and without notice, now there are a dozen PCs around the office and shop that are effectively worthless. and IT has made no attempt to prepare before this morning. Of course, now they appear to be in quite the panic.

 

The good news is my machine at work is running windows 7 so hopefully this setback wont effect me doing my job. Fingers crossed.

I have Windows 7! Windows 8 SUCKS!

While I know everyone is allowed to speak their opinion, yours is wrong. 

 

There is nothing wrong with Windows 8/8.1. People just LOVE to bitch about something to get on the Hate Windows 8 Train

What does this have to do with the end of support for XP?

 

A lot according to Microsoft apparently, since all of their ads about XP support ending has them suggesting only Windows 8 as the alternative.

The stone cannot know why the chisel cleaves it; the iron cannot know why the fire scorches it. When thy life is cleft and scorched, when death and despair leap at thee, beat not thy breast and curse thy evil fate, but thank the Builder for the trials that shape thee.
