    So now that XP is no longer supported, how vulnerable is it as opposed to, say, the latest Ubuntu?

      @pony You can enable updates for XP still. I saw some article for it. Let me see if I can find it again

        @thewaifutyphoon But it's no longer officially supported. How would that help if there are no official updates?

          @pony http://pny.lv/2wiy never mind. I misread it. Microsoft is still releasing security updates for years to come but it's only for large businesses.

              @pony personally I'd go to Windows 7. I love it but if you want to go to a different OS I won't really be able to help you. I've had Linux installed on my school computer for about a week and used it for maybe an hour.

                @thewaifutyphoon I'd like to be able to afford a completely new system
