That is the date that Neowin and a couple of other sites recently said was the latest ship target for Microsoft’s latest catch-all update to XP. According to Microsoft’s alleged internal timetable published by NeoWin, Microsoft planned to deliver the final XP SP3 bits to OEMs, volume licensees, Connect testers, and Microsoft Developer Network (MSDN) and TechNet subscribers on April 21. Neowin said Microsoft planned to make SP3 available via Microsoft Update, Windows Update and the Download Center on April 29 and to push it out via Automatic Updates on June 10.

Although MSFT is trying to make a statement regarding the full validity of MSFT Vista, the inherent need for continued support of XP is quite obvious.
Full support comes from the IT guys in my office; when i got my brand spanking new Dell corporate laptop, the first thing they kicked off was Vista and reloaded my machine with XP. That happened before i even knew that my machine had arrived. Not that i would have prevented the XP load
, it's just interesting to know that the Vista removal happened immediately. :lol:
