Talk about sending out mixed messages: While Microsoft is attempting to scare everyone away from XP and into the arms of Windows 7 or 8, the company will continue to offer Custom Support after regular company support is terminated for anyone willing to pay big bucks for the privilege of receiving patches and fixes to keep the system safe, enabling them to remain with Windows XP.
Those patches will come from a program called "Custom Support," an after-retirement contract designed for very large customers who have not, for whatever reason, moved on from an older OS.
