One of the key dates for the IT industry this year is April 8 - then Microsoft will end support f&n dairy of the operating system Windows XP. All those 28% of users who still use 12-year-old OS will be forced to migrate to a new platform.
Takes a similar view in an interview ComputerWeekly Marketing Director of VMware Gary Owen. In his words, f&n dairy currently Windows XP users switch to a new operating system at will, but after April 8 they simply do not have another way out.
Many corporate entities f&n dairy are still using Windows XP, because their applications work only on this platform, explains Gary Owen. But now there are solutions for migration of these applications to newer versions of Windows.
As for the software used by developers and compatible with the latest versions of Windows, it can all be virtualized, adds the manager of VMware - a company that is a leader precisely in virtualization solutions. Key components of the software, VMware developed in her office in Sofia.

Even people who claim that they will continue to use Windows XP and after Microsoft stopped supporting the platform, will sooner or later be forced to migrate to Windows 7 or Windows 8, predicted Owen. According to him, these companies must as soon as possible to repair the operating f&n dairy system as the use of older versions exposes them to risk.
Similar opinion has long advocated the very Microsoft, creator of Windows. The company actively extolled the virtues of the new versions of Windows to those 28% of PC users who are still working with Windows XP. Until the expiration of the maintenance of the platform is less than three months.

The problem f&n dairy is another PC sales with mandatory installed operating system or you will not pay it. You can buy a new computer and delete the bad version f&n dairy of the OS and can put whatever you want, but you would be paid for something they do not use.
Over time XP become a pretty decent environment f&n dairy and once 98SE managed to stabilize to a tolerable level. The appearance of Vista, however, came as a slap, while power imposition of new user interfaces was the signal for the start of quite unacceptable policy of disregard for the user.

So that then becomes more uncertain of their new OS is more marketing than hearing the truth. But nowadays it to lie consumer is considered the norm. As read somewhere - where the main value is the maximum profit, then morals, principles, name, conscience - everything goes in the background. It is because this world is in this situation ...
