Who is talking about SP2? You should have also quoted the next paragraph of that article, whose link you forgot to paste into your post.
"The many enterprise users still running XP desktops, often tied to proprietary software, have two months to upgrade to windows XP SP3 if they want security patches and support."totalsolutions wrote: »For those of you on a paid support program
"Microsoft’s Extended Support for XP runs until April 8, 2014, at which point the operating system will finally be put out to pasture. By that point the operating system, released in August 2001, will be approaching 13 years old."
Again you forgot something. Extended support also means also "security updates at no additional charge".0
