Windows XP and Availability

OEM. There is a stock, even at the official changeover, of the last and sometimes even previous Operating Systems. Tongue-in-cheek at least one also buys at least one piece of hardware; having said that I’ll proceed. At one time 98, ME and 2000 were available; I don’t think 98 survived XP’s broaching simply because Microsoft terminated all support for it officially. No driver updates, no responses to threat assessments, nothing. There were questions regarding the possible availability of Windows XP after the deadline. Remember, you’re buying a piece of hardware too. Or at least you meant to. Since this is an awfully good site for hardware and Microsoft has been touchy about appearances, at least consider buying some piece of hardware.
