And we'll see for the first time how Microsoft handles activation of obsolete, discontinued products.

Will they leave activation open for XP ?

Will they issue a patch disk to remove it?

Will they simply shut it all down so XP can never be activated again?

Stay tuned kiddies. This will either be a non-event, or Popcorn and Soda time :)
