Petition Started to Extend Windows XP Life; 75,000 Sign in Three Weeks
Infoworld started a Save XP petition on their website. The main goal of this petition is to get Microsoft to continue handing out Windows XP licenses beyond the June 30 deadline Microsoft put out. Fortunately for Windows XP diehards everywhere, an astounding 75,000 people have signed this petition so far. Infoworld plans on presenting this petition to Microsoft when they reach 100,000 signatures. If you have not already done so, I suggest you sign the petition if you feel that Windows XP should be around a little longer than June 30, 2008.

i will not be forced to use ms's POS spyware bloated OS. Period.
....even if that means that we'll be forced to use other methods of obtaining xp.
xp will always be around, and new keys certainly will not be needed
anyways, good luck to em, im not fussed either way
But I won't be an ass and force people to use it. I'll go head and put in my vote.
100,000 people signing a petition is frigging peanuts when you consider the sheer number of people using MS software. Especially since XP is the most pirated OS out there anyway lol.
Yes, I signed :)
