InformationWeek – April 7, 2014

Windows XP Diehards Face the Music

“Back in July, Eric Schlissel, CEO of GeekTek IT Services in Los Angeles, noted that most of his client businesses had an “if it ain’t broke” attitude when it came to XP, which, coupled with poor reception for Windows 8, made the cost of upgrading a hard sell. Since then, many of these businesses have seen the productivity light: Getting off XP meant getting off geriatric XP-era hardware — an upside Microsoft and its hardware partners also gladly tout. “Over the course of the last few months our clients’ attitudes have changed, and many have been receptive to the idea of upgrading their XP machines to Windows 7,” Schlissel said in an email interview. “Many of their XP machines were intolerably slow, so they ended up with happier and more productive employees.”
