    As long as there are old versions of FF available there shouldn't be an issue for Xp and Vista users browser wise.

    Will Microsoft keep on updating WP7? Is WP7 worth it?

    Vista was not "dropped". It is still supported by Microsoft and regularly updated, even with some of Windows 7's technology. The years between XP and Vista were unnatural; Microsoft generally releases a new version of Windows every 2-3 years. Windows 7
    was a return to that schedule.

    And yes, updates can fix issues and add features. Microsoft is not dropping Windows Phone 7 anytime soon. Lots of new features are announced for 2011, such as IE9 and multitasking. Microsoft has just signed a multi-billion dollar deal with Nokia. WP7 is here
    to stay.

    XP/Vista users will be ushered to the Firefox 52 ESR Version but startup will eventually be crippled as Mozilla will import a system dependency that will break browser startup.

    All versions and builds of Firefox are available here Directory Listing: /pub/firefox/

    I've not had any word from Mozilla that this will be changed in the future. The only problem with using older versions will obviously be security issues.

    On the plus side, XP/Vista users won't have to put up with any more pointless GUI changes.
