Missed this from Ed Bott yesterday; Microsoft set the deadline for Windows 7 Professional and Windows 8.1 OEM PC sales:

Excerpt:quote:Normally, Microsoft's policy is to set the end-of-sales date for a specific Windows version two years after the launch of the version of Windows that succeeds it. Under that policy, sales of Windows 7 PCs should have ended in late October of 2014, two years after the launch of Windows 8.

PCs with Windows 8.1 and Windows 7 can continue to be sold until October 31, 2016.
