XP.com @ Sedo It looks like the owner of XP.com wants to try to cash in ASAP, before Windows XP retirement. The domain is being auctioned at Sedo.com and the current bid is 499K with just 4 days to go. The reserve has NOT been met. It will be interesting to see how high the bidding goes and if the reserve is met.
I dont think that there are much chances that Microsoft would be willing to pay for a domain name which is not going to last for that much long and more over they got all the info on there site.
