I purchased a new computer a few weeks ago. Had XP on my old one. My local tech/sales person told me that as of April 2014 XP would be retired and Windows would no longer keep anti virus programs current for it. He also said that a person could still run the XP, but attackers would be out looking for those of us who still ran it, because we would be easy targets. Just passing on what I was told.
