XP's 'Last Day' Less Final Than Gates'
The past week has been a momentous one. Co-founder Bill Gates officially retired. A few days later, Windows XP was retired.
Officially, Monday, June 30 was the last day you could get Windows XP. Kinda, sorta, maybe … well, not really.
It's true that XP will no longer be sold by Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) to PC OEMs, but those parties can still continue to sell off their existing inventory. Additionally, Microsoft has left a lot of loopholes that will enable those who really want to get XP to do so for quite a while yet.
