By April Microsoft will not official support XP but no doubt people will still want to use XP. There might come a time where you need to reinstall XP. Installing XP will be the easy bit but to download the patches/updates you might not be able to get them from Microsoft site anymore.
There is a handy tool called WSUS offline update where it goes to Microsoft Update site and downloads all the patches for a specific OS. It could be XP/Vista/7/2003/2008 etc and it also support Office products as well.
As the deadline for XP is coming soon it might be ideal to use this software to download all the patches/updates to be used in the future if you so happen to need to rebuild your XP machine.
