Didn’t you read the important bit about not really being able to update, I have now highlighted. Some Government/Enterprise have proprietary systems that cost 10s if not 100s of millions to implement.
Ok I got that, however that still I think begs the question. What’s going to happen? How long is this sustainable?
What’s the solution? I mean xp isn’t going to be around forever.
That’s what I’m not understanding 
Thank you Pondus.
Presumably because IT projects (especially in Government) seem to progress at glacial pace and have the specs changed at a faster pace, so progress is like one step forwards, two steps back. All of this leads to huge cost overruns.
They may well have a new systems/ in development, but that is possibly years away, but will probably be based on Win10 OS, but who knows what the situation (OS) that will be around then.
All of this simply proves is that Government has no business running a business. 
It seems not to matter which country we are talking about.
The problem is they never damn learn.
Microsoft Warns Windows 7 Has Serious Problems
LOL
Ha, another push to get them on win10.
There’s only one problem with Capossela’s statements: they are complete rubbish.
Wow, now they’re bashing their own product(s)… :o :
Wonder where they learn that move ???
The author of that article is wrong on one big point. Windows 10 is inherently more secure than 7 and there just is no doubt of that. Even 8.1 is more secure than 7.
Microsoft is building its own SIM card for Windows
http://www.theverge.com/2016/1/7/10734648/microsoft-sim-card-cellular-data
Its a good idea from Microsoft and a bit like what Apple is planning on.
That way you may be able to travel around the world without the issues of pricey Roaming or multiple carriers as well.
It sounds interesting if it works out cheaper than a carrier contract. I’m sure it would work with my Lumia 640.

Windows 10 ARM64 support coming with Redstone later this year

Interesting to see Microsoft
Microsoft warns enterprises to upgrade to Windows 10 or be left behind
What amazes me is the arrogance of MS (nothing new here) when trying to push their products - fortunately Enterprise users aren’t overly concerned by the hype or being left behind.
Big companies frequently hold back for some considerable time before switching OS and it has nothing to do with being left behind but retraining a workforce and or updating their proprietary software or some hardware (drivers not supported or provided) and retraining staff. Not something that is going to happen overnight much to Microsoft’s displeasure.
