It's older than that.  Release date was August 1, 2001.  More than 14
years ago.  My how the time flies.

Though more recent versions of Windows have added features (which Python
now takes advantage of), it doesn't seem to me that we've gained much in
all that time in overall usability terms, from an end-user persepective.
 If it weren't for security issues, I'm sure Windows XP would work just
fine indefinitely for some tasks.  But they will have to stick with
unmaintained software and any problems that entails.
