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 :)
