For £63 I very much doubt it would be legit, I think is 150 for an xp upgrade to vista. the actual package is £200 and something I think

MS say they support an operating system for about 5 years after release. XP is already 6 years. so yes, within a few months. just means no more updates or new versions of IE or WMP etc. the only big thing as far as im concerned is they might not update direct X for xp anymore. so im not sure you can use DX10, which vista comes with. games will use DX10 features to make them look nice, and the later most games will require DX10 to run at all...
