XP is the operating system, not the model.
And there is something called "the suspension of disbelief," which applies here due to the fact that KyoAni doesn't have a precog on their staff.
The date for the series is 2010 and 2011, regardless of the tech level.
It is sort of like how Eva is set in 2015 and Shinji is still listening to a cassette player rather than an iPod.
When you don't know the future, better to not try to predict it and just go with what the audience finds familiar or likely.
