Study: Windows 98 prevalent as end of support looms

Microsoft will end support for Windows 98 and Windows 98 Second Edition on Jan. 16 "AssetMetrix Inc., an Ottawa-based IT asset analysis tool vendor, collected data on more than 370,000 PCs from 670 businesses in the U.S. and Canada. It found that 80% of those companies have at least one PC running either Windows 95 or Windows 98. The older operating systems accounted for about 27% of operating systems found." Basically, any form of support for Win98 is gone Jan. 16. FREEWARE!! ok. Maybe not.
