Windows XP Support

Is there a set time when Microsoft will stop supporting Windows XP?

I think I've read that they may stop the free support. I hope they don't bail out on it before I'm ready for them to move on.

I assume Service Pack 3 was the final one?

According to Microsoft: "You can still buy new PCs and use Windows XP. Windows Vista Business and Windows Vista Ultimate have downgrade rights that let you return your operating system to Windows XP. We plan to provide support for Windows XP until 2014."

I'm not sure about it being the last SP.
