Chris, Microsoft say mainstream support for Windows 7, service pack 1, will end on 13 January 2015 although extended support (confined essentially to security patches/updates) will not be withdrawn until 14 January 2020.

In fact support doesn't end at all until at least 2019 or 2020. I can't say the same for XP though but that's for another topic for another day smile.
