I stumbled across this petition from a link off of Yahoo news.

It makes me really sad that they want to end such a GREAT operating system. XP has become something real sweet. I actually have no complaints about it (other than it not having SP3 fully available yet…)

There’s actually another thread on this already, [in IMHO](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=463840).

I like XP too, and don’t relish the thought of moving to Vista when my laptop finally gives up the ghost (expected sooner, rather than later).
