Windows XP 661 Published by

11% of organisations using Windows XP plan to switch to Linux soon, a survey conducted by Tech Pro Research shows



From OMG! Ubuntu:
The research group asked organisations still using Windows XP about their plans post-April, when Microsoft ceases providing official support and security fixes for the 11-year old OS.

11% of the (admittedly small) 641 companies queried stated they intend to switch to Linux. The low-cost, robust security and growing reputation in enterprise use are likely key factors informing such plans.

Perhaps more shockingly is that 37% of those asked intend to stick with Windows XP past the expiry date.
