Microsoft Buries Windows XP in Windows Vista

Windows XP might not be officially declared expired, but Microsoft has done its best to completely drown the operating system in Windows Vista references. Want to witness first hand the Redmond company's desperation to push Vista over XP? Then simply make your way to the official Microsoft Windows XP webpage. Alternatively, you can simply click on the first image at the bottom of this article. I have already highlighted a few focus areas for you. Although this page is supposedly reserved for Windows XP, the volume of Vista references far outweighs the mentions of its predecessor operating system, ostracized at the bottom of the screen.

But maybe Windows XP is too much of a "general" concept for Microsoft and associated with Windows Vista instead. No problem. You could always try and get specific information about Windows XP Home Edition, Professional Edition, Media Center Edition, Tablet PC Edition and Professional x64 Edition. There should be absolutely no problem there, right? Wrong! Well, if you are looking for Windows XP Media Center Edition and the Professional x64 Edition then you are all set. These two editions of the XP operating system have not been corrupted by Windows Vista.

But when it comes to the remaining three editions... The Windows XP Home Edition will deliver all you need to know about Windows Vista Home Premium. The webpage for Windows XP Professional features the Windows Vista Business edition as a top story. And Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005 is just an excuse to advertise Windows Vista Ultimate. Now, in all fairness Microsoft should push Windows Vista to the foreground in the detriment of XP. After all, Vista can only grow in the space currently occupied by Windows XP on the operating system market. But do you think that Microsoft should exercise just a tad of subtlety?
