    Hi.
    I see there is this: WHS V1 Date Mainstream Support 1/8/2013
    Is this means I can get support for it until that date, but able to continue to use it forever, right?

    If it's anything like Windows XP, you're probably right.

    Do you have a link to this information? I'd like to read it.

    Does this mean no windows updates for it after this date?  That would be bad...

    If a program is useless, it must be documented.

    So, does this mean that I can still use the product forever but won't be getting supports or updates, right?

    Yes, the product is going to stop working, it will just no longer be
    supported.

    Paul,

    Do you mean "keep working" instead of "stop working?"

    Hmm, seem to be missing a "not" in there. Thanks for the correction.

    Cool.
    That's great.
    Maybe I should buy it and use it for XP PCs.
