Hey, I was a soldier you know!
I have been in some dodgy situations, sometimes scared, sometimes hopeful, sometimes wishing that the VAT inspection would finish quicker.

The old 'What is 1 + 1?' gag.
What is 1 + 1?
A Mathematician says "2"
A Physicist says "a Value in the range of 0.2 to 20, but still within the expected order of magnitude for the theory"
A Lawyer says "2, here's my bill"
A Plumber says "Well, I think it is going to be about 2, plus labour and I can't start until Tuesday"
A Doctor says "Not entirely sure, but take two aspirin and call me in the morning"
A Liberal Arts Graduate says "er...3? and would you like fries with that?"
A Programmer says "Can't answer that, the variable has not been declared"
A Librarian says "Shhh, and I think you will find it in the non-fiction section"
A Philosopher says "More than the sum of its whole"
AN ACCOUNTANT SAYS "What do you need it to be?"

You sure #2 will work? What if OP is using iSomething or some kind of linux or a keyboard where one needs to press function key too to do a print screen.
I should be a lawyer.

Yep. Of course, he may also need to find a permanent marker first...

I know you are probably thinking "Oh, no. Not another feeble minded post about WinXP. Let the smoldering ashes rest"! 
I just found it interesting, that my XP box had 4 updates today, April 9th [Office Update, IE8 Security Update, XP Security Update and Malicious Software Removal Tool update].
I suppose they could have been received by the system yesterday, but I saw no trace of them when I turned it off last night, well after midnight.

Interesting. I have XP on a laptop that I rarely use but tried getting updates the last few weeks and there weren't any. I'll have to try again and see if I get that "last gasp of support".

The last "gasp of support" is probably some malware to make your XP die within a month so that you're cut-off from support and have to upgrade to Win8.

I've got an old Win2K machine, should I check for updates on that too?
