I have read o Microsoft website that the lifecycle on windows 8 to receive security patches and updates is until 1-12-16 unless you update to 8.1 . We have windows 8 at work and can not use 8.1 because is not compatible. with some of the macros in our software for whatever reason . I am hearing from some of the level 2 tech support technicians at Microsoft that 8.0 will be continued to be supported with monthly updates and security patches until 2023 just like 8.1 . Can anyone shed some light on this to help me understand if 8.0 will or will not be supported past the 2 year traditional rollout date of a service pack which Microsoft like calling 8.1 ?
