End of Gates and XP

The biggest jolt for Microsoft and even other business corporations was that of Bill Gates’ exit. He decided to call it quits in order to take care of the Melinda Gates foundation. So, after the Gates’ exit, the burden now fell on the shoulders of the CEO Steve Ballmer. But, the exit of Gates ironically also marked the end of the renowned OS Windows XP which has been a big hit among millions of users. Even after the introduction of Vista, many users still use XP because of the fact that XP is user friendly and Vista is having a few tweaks and bugs which need to be corrected. Apart from that, the fact thay Vista is more expensive has allowed users to use XP itself instead of Vista until the Windows 7 is launched. So, Microsoft are now looking to stop XP and groom the Vista and manufacture more of Vista software. So, its Gates gone, also is XP.
