APC Magazine is reporting that computer makers have been told they will no longer be able to get Windows XP OEM by the end of the year, despite consumer resistance to Vista and its compatibility issues.
APCMag reports: “By early 2008, Microsoft’s contracts with computer makers will require companies to only sell Vista-loaded machines. ‘The OEM version of XP Professional goes next January,’ said Frank Luburic, senior ThinkPad product manager for Lenovo. ‘At that point, they’ll have no choice.'”
