There is a rumor going around at work that MS will stop support of WinXP Oct

It's a rumor.
WinXP SP3 is tentatively scheduled for release in the first half of 2008.

Look for lifecycle policies on the MS web site. XP will be supported for a
few more years.

Extended support until 2014....for Pro at any rate.

You should find a better source for getting rumors. ;-)
