No doubt M$ will use this for another push for win10.
For sure come the 12th of April 2017, the earth will still keep on rotating for those having the temerity to still be using Vista 
That is one OS I will not miss at all. ;D
Yeah Vista was a complete shambles :
if anyone liked the look they would have been better off with Win7, personally I feel the latest Win10 CU blows the doors off them all
Windows Vista = nah nah nah nah nah nah nah hey hey hey goodbye :). Really hated vista. I regretted that I bought windows vista during that time.
I didn’t hate it, I just never used it
Well said DavidR
Now that is one operating system i never got to use. I only ever got to use Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows Xp, Windows 7, Windows 8/8.1 and soon Windows 10…
Well I have done a few, Windows 3, Windows for workgroups 3.11, Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows 98SE, Windows XP, Windows 7 and now Windows 10.
Also a few Unix systems along the way during my military service.
My memory is a little sketchy prior to windows 3, but I also had an Amstrad PCW (Personal Computer Word processor) and an early PC with an Intel 8086 processor, twin 51/4" floppy disks, no HDD and a ridiculous amount of memory may have been as little as 128KB.
On my last trip in the military (early 1993) I went to Hong Kong for 30 days as part of a team replacing an old IBM 2900 main frame computer (large air-conditioned room) all the ancillary equipment data storage drives six of them each about the size of a washing machine.
All this was replaced with an HP 3000 desktop system and an external data server, in the room that the systems manager used to sit.
I bought a new motherboard, 8286 (or possibly 8386) CPU and some Memory chips (massively different to today) to upgrade my PC when I got home. Much cheaper in Hong Kong.

AST Bravo MS-T mini-tower 180 MHz Pentium Pro with a 1.6 GB HDD and 16 MB RAM. Came with Windows NT, didn't know what to do with that, plus the 1.6 GB HDD was bad out of the box. Upgraded to 200 MHz Pentium Pro and maxed the RAM to 128 MB. Got a 3.2 GB HDD for replacement.
Ran Windows 98 and then Windows 98SE for years after that.
Value of the system was $2,700 USD, which I won at a raffle at work in 1997. 17" CRT monitor and keyboard was included.
All free except for the memory and second-hand processor. AST has been out of business now for almost two decades.
