Microsoft has already backed away from that time.

You stopped reading what I wrote.
Here’s the fine print restated:
“Windows XP gets two-year extension”
http://www.itnews.com.au/News/73301,windows-xp-gets-twoyear-extension.aspx
“But the extension will apply only to extremely
specialised low-end PCs, and not to common consumer models.”
Otherwise, Intel’s new “Atom” might be out just
in time to have no Windows that runs on it.
If you want to build a new desktop or upgrade
one to XP, act before 2008-06-30.
But no, I would not be surprised if MS further
relents, and re-extends XP generally. I see no
strong indicators that they have the Vista
performance issues under control.
