End of Support for Windows Vista SP1

The reason why I asked if there will be an SP3 is because of the business editions (Enterprise and Business). Support for those won't end until 2017. If someone were to install a copy of Vista SP2 in 2016, they would spend until 2017 updating that computer through Windows Update.

@Tommyinoz You are on a Windows blog promoting Linux. Hmm, lets see, would hypocrite be the best choice of word to describe you?

@7flavor If are not interested in running the latest version of Windows, you are probably not interested in running the latest version of IE either. Considering that IE 10 has certain specific dependencies built into Windows 7 and 8 and the fact that support for all the consumer editions will be ending by the time IE 10 goes RTW, it wouldn't make business sense to support Vista.
