XP is preferred over Vista

Most of the users prefer Windows XP over Vista due to its pertinent characteristics. It is no surprise that more than one lakh people have signed a Save XP web petition requesting for the survival of the XP in the market. These web forums oppose Microsoft’s verdict to end sales of the admired Windows XP from June 30. The software major is killing XP for the purpose of upholding its new operating system Vista which has not got attractive features that were inculcated in XP. Diehard XP users have announced a warning statement in the Save XP site in which they have declared that they would even go to the level of considering switching over to the open source operating system Linux, if XP is killed. They strongly want Microsoft to persist on promoting XP till it releases its next operating system in 2010. The heartening fact is that Microsoft has shown no signs of changing its mind on the cutoff date.
