Far as I am concerned personally windows end of life for me at least, ended five years ago when I switched to Linux. When I bought an HP desk top last year, I immediately removed windows 10 when I got it home. I am forever hooked. I found this on Opera`s blog. "There are several browsers out there worth trying, but among major browsers only Opera for computers will continue to bring bug fixes and security updates to XP and Windows Vista users to ensure people stay safe when browsing online.

Not really a shocking or surprising story. XP is 15 years old & Vista is 10. Version 52 of Firefox will be the last XP &Vista compatible version. Not a surprise, Google Chrome did it last year. Here's a link to the store, which is really a non-story. Plus in April of 2017 Microsoft has reached end of life for Vista. You may now return to your eggnog.
