Oh, yeah, totally! (the duration of the support). That's why I made the comment I did the other day, about the "everybody loves Apple, everybody hates Microsoft" conundrum, to my way of thinking. I'm sitting here with a first-gen iPad that's been effectively abandoned; half the apps I would use no longer run on it. Nor can they. Apple just chucked it over.

XP, on the other hand (and Office 2003) have been supported for dog's years, nearly, what, 11-13 years, or something like that? That's un-freaking-believable.

I'm not nuking my XP laptop yet, not until I can snag the Surface Pro 2 that I've been waiting (and waiting and waiting) for. (The wait for which getteth on my nerveth).
