    Hi, could i be right in saying this???

     

    I'm looking to puchase a PC in the next two months with windows XP home edition installed, but given the deadline of the 30th of june from microsoft for the discontinuation of the XP licence, and assuming that my PC vendor might have all sold out of XP licences by then?? that i would need now! to run to the store and purchase a (windows XP home edition OS licence) and then take this disc back in two months to the vendor and ask them to assemble me a new PC with this XP disc to be installed..

    could this be a possibility..

    or can i only purchase the OS with the hardware???

    It might well be the case. Why don't you contact your PC vendor about this ? Maybe they have a plan pf action in place already..

     Why don't you just install XP yourself. It's not that hard and there are plenty of guides to download and print out. It's quite safe to do.

     Hi,

    If you lose your laptop, you can now be confident that your data will be safe. The mindSHIFT data protection
    service initiates a remote data wipe of the machine when it is lost or stolen.
