XP is at the end of it's life now. The only way to get it legitimately is to buy Windows 7 Professional which gives you downgrade rights to downgrade to XP.

its a shame really since i accually have windows 7 on dual boot with XP

i find if 7 doesnt run it or has glitches XP works like a charm(weras vista just fails all over)

they should keep selling XP in my opinion as a budget windows for those that cant afford buy windows 7(i didnt buy it got a free disk from my uncle who couldnt run it on his comp :thumbs:)

In a way they have been, but I think Microsoft have decided enough is enough and put an end to XP. It is after all an 8 year old OS.
