Today Microsoft officially stops selling its Windows XP operating system as a stand alone product as well as providing it to major computer manufacturers such as Dell and HP. The decision to wait to discontinue sales of XP until June 30th came after a large customer demand last year to keep the product on the shelf. Microsoft has said that retailers may still have XP available for some time past June 30th depending on specific back stock. Further support for the operating system will continue to be available until 2014.
