[QUOTE="Jon Dees, post: 108961, member: 6217"] Re: Avid Consoles…. XP and ? Note that it appears MS is committing to support for embedded licensees through January 2016. I am not familiar with Avid's license scheme so I don't know if their version is in fact XP Embedded. [url=http://support.microsoft.com/lifecycle/search/default.aspx?alpha=windows+xp]Microsoft Product Lifecycle Search[/url] That merely kicks the can though, not solves for an infrastructure purchase that should last 10+ years in many cases and if bought brand new tomorrow appears to have an expiration date of a little over 2 years. While this also applies to wireless mics in the 600 MHz band it does seem disingenuous on the part of manufacturers to do this to consumers of decently expensive professional equipment where long-term support is generally assumed.
