[edit] Windows 2000

Hey, hope things are well with you. Your addition to the article hits all the important points pretty well, glad someone finally got around to putting it in :). It seems like the support durations for each OS have been different, whether it's because of service pack releases or public relations is anybody's guess.

Windows 2000 was superceded by XP in 2001, but it didn't go into extended support for four years. Windows 2000 SP4 came out in June 2003. Right now Microsoft is saying XP will go into extended support two years after Vista comes out... so, beginning of 2009. They're planning on putting out XP SP3 sometime in the first half of next year, ad if Win2k is any indication, that might push the end of mainstream support out to two years after XP SP3... who knows? I've never heard of Microsoft putting out a service pack after mainstream support has ended, but that could change at any time. -/- Warren 04:06, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Windows XP Development

Hello, can you help me improve and expand the section "Development of Windows XP" I created for the Windows XP article? Link here. Please respond on my talk page. - Deogene 09:18, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

Yes, ah I think the development of Windows XP section needs more data, references and some images. I'll try to find some. - Deogene 14:34, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

Nice pictures! I'll try to upload one. - Emir214 01:49, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

Can you also include some data? I don't know which data are to include in the article. -Emir214 01:34, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WGA

Hey, sorry I didn't get back to you sooner on this subject. I'm not really too up on the details of WGA, and it hasn't really interested me all that much (probably because all my software is legit and it hasn't gotten in my way)... it's an interesting contention that some people are classifying WGA as spyware, and I think if Wikipedia is going to make that claim, we should make a good case for it, since it's going to be a bit contentious. -/- Warren 17:36, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Still around?

A Wikipedia without Jdlowery's keen eye for detail is a sad Wikipedia. Hope to see you around more in the future!

(p.s. the logo on your User page will have to be removed; we can't display copyrighted stuff on our user pages, unfortunately... I'll remove it by the end of November if you don't get to it yourself) -/- Warren 06:14, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Windows 95 Builds

I'll try and look into it within the next couple of days. I just got in this morning from LA, and sort of feeling out of it right now. - MSTCrow 16:36, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
