“Every business is unique and has different needs,” the Microsoft representative added. As Windows 8 launched less than a year ago, we are still seeing a lot of businesses completing those planned Windows 7 migrations now. “We recommend our customers continue these deployments and consider Windows 8 in targeted scenarios where it makes the most sense, such as highly mobile workers. “Since Windows 8 launched, our guidance to business customers has been to continue Windows 7 migrations that are already in process,” a Microsoft representative told PCWorld in a statement last month. Businesses starting to panic have chosen Windows 7 as a stopgap, however. The “XPocalypse” will leave PCs in a “ zero day forever” mode, exposing them to any and all future vulnerabilities. XP’s marketshare is undoubtedly the most troubling, since Microsoft will discontinue support for Windows XP by next April, leaving the 13-year-old operating system without any way of being patched.
