Windows 7 closer than we think

Microsoft have been trying their hardest to put XP behind them, but no matter what steps they take it seems that users are just too reluctant to give it up.

However, once more Microsoft will be forcing the issue; they need to do this because of the new operating system Windows 7 is virtually good to go.

The plan is that on the 14th April free support for XP users will stop, yet because XP is comparable with Linux and because they are almost giving it away to mini laptop producers, there are still plenty of XP users out there.

However, Microsoft are in business and simply cannot give their products away, therefore they need to kill off XP as soon as they can.
