Your ignorance is bliss. I had a "real" pc I built myself and had to sell due to personal reasons. So I dusted off an old pc I had laying around for now. That's as much as I'll explain myself to some internet warrior virgin like yourself.

And in other news I was able to get Mozilla on there so that's working. Will it continue to work even after they're done supporting xp?

This. XP was good in it's day, but is so outdated at this point, that it's not worth continuing to drag along. For an Internet browsing unit, I'd rather put a current build of Linux on that (Mint, Ubuntu, whatever), then use XP at this point.
