| Microsoft Ends Mainstream Support for Vista Today, End of Support for XP in 2014 Microsoft Windows Vista is out of its "mainstream support" from today. Users will continue to have free access to security updates, but those without a commercial support contract will have to pay for bug fixes or other patches. This phase between end of mainstream support and end of support is called "extended support", and for Vista, it will last till 2017. The decade-old Windows XP, on the other hand, will see Microsoft pull the plug on its support no later than in 2014. http://www.techpowerup.com/163920/Mi...P-in-2014.html |
