Windows XP
Comments (0) Windows XP is going out of support next month.. This means Microsoft will no longer provide security updates or any patches for the OS, leaving users of the 12-year old version of Windows more vulnerable to emerging threats.
On this occasion, let’s take a moment to put dear old WinXP’s age in perspective. But first, some mood music:
When Windows XP was released…
Bill Gates was still CEO of Microsoft.
Gates with his new baby. Also Alias.
Friends, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, The X-Files, Frasier and Sex and the City were still airing new episodes.
Vampires were still scary.
The one where Monica and Chandler are married and Rachel is freaking out.
We had yet to see shows like The Office, Arrested Development, House and How I Met Your Mother.
There was no Gregory House in 2001.
The current-gen iMac had a CRT display.
This was the competition.
There was only The Matrix.
This was true in 2001.
The “War on Terror” had only just begun.
The President of the USA.
The BlackBerry 950 was the current model.
Portable productivity for the business professional.
