OSX v10.1 came out around the same time and nobody seems to say the same thing about Apple which dropped support years ago. Ubuntu is used by tons of huge corporations and its LTS versions are only supported for 5 years yet nobody blames Canonical. Yes XP runs enterprise but 13 years is more than reasonable to stop support. Its not like MS suddenly dropped this on these companies either, they gave years of warning to them but the companies didn't listen and now blame MS. And if these huge companies are planning their IT infrastructure decades at a time, in an OS industry that is only around 30 or so years old, they need to rethink their strategy and hire a new CTO.
