Windows XP third largest operating system

Beijing Time April 9 News, according to the Science and technology website TechRadar reports, speaking of Windows XP, everyone will certainly gush out a sense of nostalgia, this guy has been born 15 years, is definitely an immortal classic of the scientific and technological community. Is it okay now? Isn't Microsoft already abandoning it (stopping support means no more security upgrades) for two years? In fact, it's pretty good, still glowing on many people's computers.

So how many people are still using Windows XP? NetMarketShare, a data-statistics firm, found that by the end of March this year, Windows XP still had a 10.9% share in the Desktop OS Market, ranked third in the industry, compared to Windows 8.1 (9.56%) and Apple OS X 10.11 (4.05% ) is also high. Even the strong-growth Windows 10 was just beyond XP this February, and it now has a 14.15% market share. But the operating system is still dominated by Windows 7, with a share of 51.89%.

15 years after the release incredibly can still have such a high share, Windows XP is really a little strong ah. When XP was the apple of the eye, they even burned $1 billion in XP, but I'm afraid even Redmond, the marketing executive at the time, could not have predicted that this magical operating system could stand for 15 years.

Why is Windows XP so popular? In general, it is equipped with most of the features that are still very useful, and the system has a huge improvement over its predecessor, Windows ME, and the essence of Microsoft is in XP, and this is one of the reasons why Vista is down.

While XP's classic position is irrefutable, it's a little bit flawed, without Microsoft's official security support. If you are still using this operating system, for the sake of security, it is best to choose to upgrade, don't let security loopholes ruin this sentiment.
