As many are aware, XP is no longer supported. As a result, vendors have really stepped up support for Windows 7. In fact, without future updates I would recommend anyone who uses XP at their business to consider upgrading to windows 7.

Audit your processes, contact your vendors and determine which systems can be upgraded to 7. Create a test system and run your apps in a test environment before you deploy and be mindful of the costs associated with renewing or obtaining licenses for Windows and you vendor software. If you can do all of that, there is no reason to be using XP especially when the lack of support opens your system up to security 

Win8.1/8 reached almost 19% marketshare all of a sudden,it was unexpected and windows 8.1/8 were doomed especially after win10 announcement!

However they had the biggest growth ever bigger than win 7 for the first time!Had MS to announce win 10 later and give one more chance to win8.1/8?win8.1/8 will absorb winxp share and may reach 30% share,which is a success!I wouldn't be surprised if ms delay win 7...!As I said this news are good for pcs,they may skyrocket this quarter.!
