Technically each SP refreshed the code base and many other libraries are independent of the platform, which is why it has lasted so long.

SP3 was released late 2008, so it's "only" 5 years old.

I'm not a gamer so DX9 is fine, all the .net libraries work on it, it has NTFS support just as fine as W7 and W7 32-bit cannot support any more memory than XP can.

XP is just a way for me to launch programs, W7 is not going to launch them any better.

Just want to get two more years out of this.
