Its a long way from dead. No free support, but far from dead. There is still paid support.

yea  no  see that is an issue if some companies wishes to  continue using XP chances are ther system are so far outdated  they are making ther  employees  work  and life at work a living nightmare it cost  them more to keep  machines older running longer then to just upgrade new systems.  it be far more cost effective to  have new system in-place  running latest version of windows  then to try and get Ms to  give them custom support  
 
 
XP is near 14 years old DEal with it and move on   XP like windows  before it and after it was supposed to be a 3 year deal  then new windows but longhorn development prolonged it .  so ya knwo what  they can live in the past if they wish  they are just stubborn business just being lazy to upgrade and or well get new hardware i mean really what will they do when there    systems  die and they have no choice but to go to a new system or if 1 machine crashes so they order a new one and expect to install windows XP  on it only to find out it has no drivers for it   what they gonna call up MS and cry and moan   
 
 
XP is DEAD   14  or near 14 years it  lasted longer then it was supposed to  and should have  
 
 

Mine will stay up Intel Death Do Us Apart A Small pun on Intel.

Lets have a moment of silence please.....
