Microsoft may reconsider its decision to pull Windows XP off the shelves in June if it sees enough customer demand, CEO Steve Ballmer said — despite a huge customer outcry over the decision.

Some customers have complained that they must buy PCs pre-loaded with XP as small businesses and can’t get them at retail stores.
