A few more reasons to upgrade from XP


Posted by: Timothy Weaver on 03/31/2014 02:46 PM [ comments Comments ]


The following are some things to think about when considering whether or not to upgrade your system to Windows 7 or 8.





• Microsoft has made significant improvements to boot speed in Windows 7 and 8.

• Windows 7 Professional and Windows 8 also include features like Aerosnap and Jump Lists.

• Security. XP is about twice as likely to be compromised as a result of encountering malware than either Windows Vista or Windows 7 Professional, and nearly six times more likely to get infected than Windows 8 Pro.

• Once Microsoft support ends, other hardware and software vendors like Adobe and Oracle will follow suit.

• Companies that are publicly traded fall under regulatory or industry compliance mandates. Continuing to use Windows XP may make them non-compliant.

All of this means that upgrading your OS results in more efficiently, increase productivity, and enhance your immunity to critical security threats.
