The Associated Press notes that Microsoft had expected to stop selling most forms of XP by the end of June 2008, extending help only to small system-builders and computers built for poor countries, like the OLPC. The company now says though that there is unexpected demand in First World countries, particularly for those same machines intended for the Third World. Microsoft says it will in fact keep XP available for a year after the release of its Vista successor, commonly dubbed Windows 7.
