Microsoft XP Users Advised To Switch Before April 2014

Here is what will happen to Microsoft XP users who refuse to switch before April 2014:

“Security patches will no longer be released, leaving PCs running XP vulnerable to cyber-attacks and almost 14 times more likely than those running Windows 8 to become infected with malware and that to avert this it is advisable to start planning to migrate to the latest version of Windows 8.1 software.”

-The Head of Corporate Affairs, Microsoft Nigeria.

Windows 8 is Microsoft’s latest operating system for modern businesses, building on Windows 7 fundamentals such as speed, reliability and security while creating a modern platform designed for new generation of hardware experiences from tablets and innovative touch devices to traditional desktops and laptops.

“Migration is taken for granted until it is experienced. It is therefore wise for customers and partners to move with the changing technology trend by migrating to the Windows 8 and Office 2013 platform within the 8-month period,” Awawu Olumide-Sojinrin, Acting Country Manager, Microsoft Nigeria said.

Founded in 1975, Microsoft (NASDAQ “MSFT”) is the worldwide leader in software, services and solutions that help people and businesses realize their full potential.
