MicroXP!? What year is it!?
Firefox stopped supporting XP in 2018 so it's not too long ago that it was still usable.
6 years was "not too long ago", eh? Right this way grandpa, let's get you back to your rocking chair
Okay it's long for people where it's 6 years ago they learned to tie their shoes.
Gramps here still thinks LOTR is a recent movie.
I've been in tech since 2003 in some form or another, I'm right there with you in thinking XP feels recent. My daughter was 2 in 2018, so it's definitely felt super quick to me too.
ok so technically, the 2018 support was post wannacry? I want to say. I dont believe they totally supported it up until quite a few years prior to that.
I was struggling to find the newest XP related news to prove my point, it was the best I could do.
By 2018 XP had been replaced by Windows 7 for several years.
yeah. Win 7 was released in like 2009? Win 10 was 2015.
Win xp was probably discontinued the same time as win 7.
