Well supposedly the traditional IP is soon to reach it's max in 61 days, prohibiting any internet expansion, though IPv6 will replace this issue, a lot of OSes, such as WIN XP and before do not support this  INTERNET WILL CRASH LAWLZ lol but yah, if it does reach it's limit, I ponder what will happen, eg, will only newer OSes be able to access IPv6 addressed servers?

It is fully supported in XP with SP2 and in SP1 with the Advanced Networking Patch. The only issue with XP/2003 is performance due to inefficiency running 2 IP stacks side by side (where as Vista and greater ipv4 and ipv6 are a single dual layer stack).

The only issue with XP/2003 is performance due to inefficiency running 2 IP stacks side by side (where as Vista and greater ipv4 and ipv6 are a single dual layer stack). This mostly, though i doubt performance will be such a big issue on new computers. The only downside is that ipv6 is not activated by default in win xp so you have to 1st install it via command line. Chances are there are probably some 3rd party programs available to make this easier for people. Btw installation is like only one line so its not hard. No need to worry...

I'm just surprised and disappointed that hardware companies and ISPs haven't joined forces and provided computers with IPv6, cuz even though my Os can support, I know my cable modem can not
