    Exclamation MS: Only the Latest Version of Windows Will Support New CPU Generations

    FYI...

    MS: Only the Latest Version of Windows Will Support New CPU Generations
    - http://tech.slashdot.org/story/16/01...pu-generations
    Jan 16, 2016 - "... news from Microsoft about how the company will support Windows now and in the future*. The company says PCs built with Intel's Skylake chip, and other new architectures in the future, will require the latest version of Windows for support. This doesn't take effect right away; Windows 7 and 8.1 will be supported on older chips until their planned end-of-life dates, in 2020 and 2023 respectively. They'll also be supported on a list of current Skylake devices for the next 18 months. After that, only the latest version of Windows will support integration** between the operating system and new CPU features. "For example, Windows 10 will be the only supported Windows platform on Intel's upcoming 'Kaby Lake' silicon, Qualcomm's upcoming '8996' silicon, and AMD's upcoming 'Bristol Ridge' silicon..."

    Exclamation Deadline for obsolete IE's and Win8

    FYI...

    Deadline for obsolete IE's and Win8
    - http://windowssecrets.com/patch-watc...and-windows-8/
    Jan 14, 2016 - "With the start of a new year, Microsoft is cleaning house of “obsolete” operating systems and browsers. If you’re still on Windows 8.0, you need to update to Win8.1 to be fully supported. And for true browser protection, you need to be using the most current releases of Internet Explorer...
    MS16-001 (3124275), MS16-003 (3124624)
    ... reducing the number of versions Microsoft needs to support is a good thing. For example, keeping secure a browser that has multiple editions in multiple languages, for multiple operating systems is a tall order, even for Microsoft. Sending out monthly fixes for fewer versions should mean more reliable updates.
    With that in mind, this month’s cumulative IE update, KB 3124903, is the -last- for IE 7 and 8. According to a Microsoft product lifecycle FAQ*, “Beginning Jan. 12, 2016, only the most current version of Internet Explorer available for a supported operating system will receive technical support and security updates.” Going forward, on desktop Windows, IE 9 will be the -only- supported version on Vista systems; IE 11 is the -only- supported version on Win7 and Win8.1.
    Along with the operating system and your anti-malware software, the browser is the most important app to keep up to date with the latest security fixes. If you remain on IE 7 or 8, your risk of infection will rise rapidly. Keep in mind that Internet Explorer is deeply tied into Windows. So even if you don’t use IE as your default browser, it’s important to keep it current. (After you install this month’s cumulative update, you’ll be -nagged- that your browser is out of date and you need to upgrade — in most cases to IE 11.)"
