Support for NT4 also going away...

It's funny how people always want to use old stuff with new stuff and
expects it all to work perfectly.

I was just on the phone with a guy who does Consulting/PC support for one of
our customers, and we were discussing a printing issue. (The client had a
USB printer) since we are still Running on NT4 they are unable to print, and
he informed me that starting next year PC's will no longer have the parallel
or serial ports ONLY  USB. Has anyone heard this?

I noticed the post about the WYSE terminals dropping legacy support. Does
this hold for PC's too?
