windows xp home...ancora 1 anno
Windows XP Home: obsolete sooner than you expect
Microsoft set out to adopt a formal and rigid support lifecycle in 2002, back at a time when most analysts were expecting to see Windows Vista (then, "Longhorn") within a couple of years. My own point of view was that this lifecycle business had a lot to do with Microsoft's then-new volume licensing scheme, which among other things is oriented towards selling software subscriptions. If you're buying a subscription for software, you can see how lifecycle plans become important. However, delays in Windows Vista coupled with a questionable approach to "consumer" products means that 2007 will carry a few surprises unless policy changes are made at Redmond. XP Professional and Home are divided into two general product categories for Microsoft, namely business and consumer products. XP Professional, as a business product, will receive mainstream support for two additional years after the release of Windows Vista (whenever that may be). After that, Professional will have an additional five years of extended service (minimum), though this could be lengthened considerably if the OS update after Windows Vista does not ship within three years of Vista's debut. Mainstream and Extended support are virtually identical, with both carrying security updates, service packs, online support, and the availability of paid support. However, the transition to the Extended Support phase means that hotfixes that are not security related will be made available by a (paid) commercial contract, warranty claims can no longer be made, and Microsoft will not entertain adding any new features or design elements to the OS. Based on the current timeline and our own expectations for the launch of Windows Vista, we estimate Windows XP Professional Mainstream Support ending in late December 2008, with Extended Support ending in December of 2013. It could stretch out longer, but we don't expect the window to be more than two to three additional years. After the Extended Support phase is finished, online support (knowledge base, FAQ, etc.) will continue for 10 years. Windows XP Home coming up short Windows XP Home is another story. As a consumer product, it suffers from two policy deficiencies. First, consumer products do not qualify for Extended Support, but instead move directly into the online support phase after Mainstream Support ends. Second, whereas business products are guaranteed Mainstream Support for two years beyond the release of the next subsequent version of a product (in this case, Windows Vista), consumer products do not get this built-in transitional period. The end result is that Windows XP Home will leave Mainstream Support and enter online support on January 1, 2007—in less than a year. mainstream support.... significa che non ci saranno + aggiornamenti?

E' ovvio, come per tutti i suoi prodotti Microsoft dopo 5 anni interrompe il supporto, e continua a sviluppare solo le patch per le vulnerabilità critiche per altri 5 anni.
Se si desidera un'assistenza più avanzata e dedicata ci sono particolari contratti per ottenere patch sviluppate su richiesta. Ovviamente la cosa costa... Trascorsi altri 5 anni (10 totali dall'uscita del prodotto) scatta l'oblio totale, nessun tipo di supporto di alcun genere. Praticamente quella data era nota già il giorno che XP entrò in commercio, state scoprendo l'acqua calda Ultima modifica di FAM : 05-01-2006 alle 00:42. |

Beh...era prevedibile con L'usicta di Vista
XP se ben ricordo...prima di diventare stabile e sicuro, ci impiegò qualche mesetto e oltretutto aggiornando la ram...è possibile installarlo anche su sistemi di tre - quattro anni fa....ma da quanto si è carpito...Vista vorrà qualcosa in più! Per quanto concerne la differenza fra HOME e PRO (che poi di fatto è svanita con il SP2) e le date di fine supporto, penso sia dovuto per venire incontro alle aziende ed uffici...i maggiori usufruitori della versione Pro. |
