".....Bowing to continued demand, Microsoft has again extended the life of Windows XP.
Three months after Microsoft stopped selling new copies of Windows XP, the software remains a top seller on Amazon.com.
(Credit: Amazon.com)Although the largest PC makers can't sell XP anymore (except for ultra-low-cost machines), they can sell Vista Ultimate and Vista Business machines with XP discs in the box, or even Vista machines that are "factory downgraded" to Windows XP.
That option was supposed to go away early next year, as Microsoft was going to stop supplying Windows XP media after January 31. However, the company now says it will offer the discs through July 31, giving the option a six-month extension. (Update: PC makers will also be able to sell the factory downgraded machines online as well....."
