Jimbos confused - W7 Mainstream support to end 2015
Hi there
Is THIS true -- W7 Mainstream support to end in 2015 -- I thought W7 was going on until around 2020.
This comes from FORBES - usually "Semi reliable" -- beware a lot of irritating ads that popup while you are trying to read the article -- there's no malware or "Malvertisements" in the article - just gets a bit irritating
Microsoft To Abandon Windows 7 Mainstream Support. Pressure Builds On Windows 9 - Forbes
I see EXTENDED support will continue but that's a different Animal.
BTW OT here but there's quite an interesting feature elsewhere - XP to get an un-official (not Ms) SP4 -- for those running XP as a VM that might be interesting too - although as always with "Unsanctioned" patches it's very definitely A.Y.O.R. - although the site does have credibility.
Note also from same magazine so you might get a few ads when reading - no malware though.
