انتهت المبيعات الرسمية لأي جهاز كمبيوتر يحمل نظام التشغيل Windows XP منذ فترة طويلة (باستثناء أجهزة الNetBook التي تستوفي الشروط التي وضعتها الشركة) و لكن Microsoft سابقا كانت قد قدمت خيار مختلف تحت وطأة الضغط ممن يتمسكون بنظام التشغيل السابق و هو خيار الحصول على جهاز يعمل بنظام Windows Vista مع إمكانية تنزيل النظام الى XP بعد الشراء عبر خيار Downgrade. و لكن حتى هذا الخيار الأخير كان يفترض أن ينتهي العمل به رسميا في ...

That's according to an e-mail sent from Microsoft to an unspecified partner company, which purportedly details a plan to work with other buddies in pushing ...

Eagle-eyed reader Phelipe Hamoui snapped these shots of the giant iPhone display in Hong Kong running Mac OS X. This marks a nice change from that embarrassing little slip-up that revealed a U.S. display was running (gasp upon gasp!) Windows XP. So take a deep breath, Mac Army. Everything's gonna be okay.

According to a leaked email from a PC OEM, Microsoft has officially extended the life of its now-beloved Windows XP, moving the date of planned obsolescence from January 31, 2009 all the way to July 31, 2009. In the wake of its very expensive ad campaign promoting (in a roundabout way) Vista, the move is a bit surprising. Essentially, Microsoft is trying to let users skip Vista completely, moving directly from XP to its forthcoming ...

Many users do still use an administrators user account in Windows XP instead of a more secure limited account. It is comfortable to work as an administrator all the time but successful attacks will be more devastating that way either. Instead of working with a limited account most of the time and an administrators account only when needed users could also increase system security by starting selected applications as a lesser privileged user. The runas ...

How do you supersize a simple music manager? Ask Apple. The Windows version of iTunes 8 takes up nearly 200MB of space on a Windows PC, including kernel-mode drivers, multiple system services, and at least one add-in. It takes a supersize helping of chutzpah to create an ad that criticizes Windows for its “bloat” and then deliver an upgrade with as much unnecessary junk as this one. If you’re like most people, you don’t need ...

Причины могут быть самые разные: начиная от банального "не понравилась", "тормозит" и заканчивая несовместимостью с рабочим набором программ. По результатам анализа статистики примерно 50-80% пользователей, которые купили ноутбук, ставят на него Windows XP. Прежде чем начать Прежде чем переходить на Windows XP, стоит хорошо подумать.
