Default Win 9x users, How Many?

What is their criteria for stopping support?

The same as it has always been, the lifecycle of the product which is set
out in advance. Win Me like all Win 9x systems is well past its sell by
date and no longer suited for use with modern computers.

Has MS ever done a survey to see how many Win 95, 98, 98SE and ME
users are still out there? Compared to, say XP? What is their
criteria for stopping support? Age? Upkeep? Usage? Customer
satisfaction? Profit? This inquiring mind would like to know?
