Listening Skills

Microsoft needs to work on their listening skills. Although there have been some cracks in the story, Microsoft plans to discontinue selling Windows XP on 30 June 2008 and this is making many customers upset. According to the Save XP petition, 184,294 people as of 9am PT on April 28 have asked that Microsoft continue to sell it.

That seems like a lot of people to actually care enough to save a product to rethink things. I'm not a Vista hater, but I really don't see much benefit to it right now. I would have to manage the upgrade of 30 other people to a new OS, which doesn't sound like a lot of fun. So, I'll put it off as long as I can.
