Microsoft pushes 50 dollar gift cards and other offers to lure users away from XP

[Guide] Now, less than one months after Microsoft stopped supporting Windows XP, Microsoft is trying to lure users away from the 12-year-old operating system. Microsoft pushes 50 dollar gift card 90 days of free support etc to attract users to give up XP Tencent technology Beckham March 16 compiler now distance from Microsoft to stop supporting Windows XP for less than one months, Microsoft is trying to attract users to give up the existing 12-year-old operating system, The attraction includes a 50 dollar gift card from Microsoft stores, 90 days of free support, and free transfer of data to a newly purchased PC. But like similar concessions in the past, these services need to be noted. A 50 dollar digital gift card can only be used later in the US Microsoft store online. Free support includes mobile and chat services, but this is not a new offer from Microsoft stores. Finally, because Microsoft and LapLink signed the cooperation agreement, so any user can carry on the free data migration. In other words, only digital gift cards are more practical and limited to user online purchases. But as an extra offer, Microsoft has done the right thing. These offers are valid for the period from March 6 to April 30 this year. Microsoft will stop Windows XP support and security updates after April 8 this year. To use a 50 dollar gift card, users can choose from 16 new PCs in the Microsoft store, including tablets, laptops, all-in-one machines, and folding computers, many of which have already been involved in discount promotions. The prices of these computers range from 229 to 1258.91 dollars. Microsoft sees this as an effective way to attract Windows XP users to upgrade their operating systems, but unfortunately the company is mistaken for a target group. Currently, the highest usage of Windows XP is in the third world countries, not the United States, and the use of enterprise users is far higher than that of individual consumers. April 14, 2009, Microsoft stopped mainstream support for Windows XP (mainstream Support) and will stop extending support (Extended Support) this April 8. That is, there will be no more Windows XP security updates in the future.
