I have jumped the wagon and I am using windows 7 on desktop and windows 8.1 on lappy

BTW whats 2 months of life for xp ...after that it will blow off all the PC using it

....its just the update and patch which wont come.

^^ and many don't care abt updates.. so it's just another news..

Yes it seems

Even in my win7 and win 8 systems, I have turned updates OFF. Not because of piracy but updates eat up lots of system space. XP is great, when you zoom, pictures do not get pixlated

And vulnerabilities does not matter much because anybody hack into my system will get only music and movies. In case of any issue I will format C: drive. I forgot to mention the most important of all, it eats up all my data quota.

Will use XP on my old PC even microsoft doesn't provide support or may switch to linux.

no need to give a facepalm as update backup eats up sufficient space unless you delete it.

^If I remember correct that occurred because of Windows 7 using EVR renderer which does not do a high quality scaling. Windows XP and Vista used VMR/EVR 1.1 (older versions) that used slower but higher quality algorithms for the same (with higher CPU time). AFAIK this should have been fixed with later drivers, however you can easily bypass it by using photo viewer software with their own renderers, or in case of videos, replacing EVR with ffdshow, madVR or some such.

Windows Me -2000-03,
Windows XP -2003-08,
Windows 7 -2008-till date.

So Win 7 crossed Win XP in terms of usage and I hope they make a cross breed of XP+7 in the upcoming Windows 9.Then it would be a superb Hit.
