On April 8, 2014, Windows XP’s come to the end of its support life-cycle. After that, it appears 37 percent of you are planning on continuing with XP without support. That’s foolhardy.
I get it though. You know XP like the back of your hand and Windows 8.x has left you as cold as a penguin in the Antarctica ocean. You may also have considered switching to a Mac and gotten hives from just the thought, or contemplated a Chromebook but couldn’t get past the idea of relying so much on the Internet and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS). I suggest an alternative you may not have considered: Linux Mint.
