well I don't think they can just stop producing 7 just like that,
all the boxes we have are on 7, and while there is a market for it
pc manufacturers will still release drivers till at least support
for updates ends.
thats not for another 5 years.
Even if ms stops drivver library support most drivers for ms are
generic ones anyway.
As well as this because of the 8x disaster ms really needs to make
sure that their new os works this time, right now it looks ok but
there is always a chance to wreck it later.
To be honest if xp didn't drop outside support I'd continue using
it and now it appears they are trying to make vertuals with xp not
work in 8 and up put it this way I have no desire to even think of upgrading.
