Aww

Microsoft shuts down Windows 98 - they're finally ending support for the Win98 operating system. It astounds me that anyone who uses their computer more than very occasionally could still be using it, but there are a lot of people who still do (according to the BBC article, 70 million of them!). I reckon anyone who's still running the same PC they bought 8 years ago should be congratulated for somehow managing to not have any major part/software failures in that time, but still pointed in the direction of a cheap XP computer (which will presumably be supported for a few more years yet with Vista only out next year).
