Stay safe? Not if XP continues to be put on the internet and security weaknesses are exploited to create massive botnets after support ends in April. Not going to happen, that we’re going to stay safe. It’s hairy enough as it is, but it will be worse after April if XP is not removed for personal and safety reasons. Businesses are migrating away because because of that, and they don’t want to lose monies by being penny wise and pound foolish. As of now, XP is still at 27% usage out of all os’s with only five months of support left.
OS percentage should diminish rapidly just after April as businesses should almost be done with XP by then. [EDIT:] If not, that is because they are willing to pay Microsoft for extended support coverage, something the common user does not have access to.
