    Hello, just wondering how long you think Windows XP will be supported by most software companies before Microsoft Vista is the "new" operating system...

    My estimation: 2010-2011 approx. But then Windows XP Professional "extended" support by Microsoft lasts till 2013 :)

    So if the "extended" support is taken into consideration, then WinXP has quite a few more years ;)
