An anonymous reader writes "ZDNet reports that Microsoft is extending technical support for Windows 98 till 30 June 2006, despite being days away from switching support to a CD. It seems Windows 98 will also have all necessary security updates till the new expiry date." The article states that Microsoft will have "...During that time paid over-the-phone support will be available, and "critical" security issues will be reviewed and "appropriate steps" taken."

  1. Shame Red Hat didn't do the same! by dan+dan+the+dna+man · · Score: 3, Offtopic

    And yes thanks people I already have Fedora on some machines and Red Hat Enterprise on the rest, I just wish support for 7.3 and 9.0 had been extended by Red Hat and not left to third parties..
