It’s not the real release date!
A Microsoft spokesperson declined the same say to confirm reports circulating on technology blogs today citing purportedly leaked documents as saying the online release date for Windows XP Service Pack 3 will be April 29.

Fumbles,
“Windows ME was not a whole lot better.”?
Here, let me correct those awful spelling errors: “Windows ME was a whole lot worse.”
Vista is nothing more than WinME with steroids. Both are epic failures.

Anybody know if ill be able to install the final build of XP SP3 over previous builds? Or will it ask for uninstallation of previous builds before you can install. I have purposefully slipstreamed build 5508, and installed new on my cousins pc, but if I won’t be able to over previous builds then im gonna have to just install XP with sp2, then sp3 build 5508 by itself.

now back to the topic.
As of yesterday the SP3 is available for download? If so, where exactly can we download it? (the original source obviously, no none-ms sites)

@33
After reading comments from all these morons you are first writing something so true. The biggest problem for Windows (well, hell, for any OS), is the idiots sitting in front of the computers, who call big blue “e” icon on the desktop “the internet” and who blame Microsoft for their XP working so slow after installing Norton Antivirus.

I’m sticking to MS-DOS v6.22 for a few more years.

I love all the criticism of Windows yet would happily bet a lot of these people use it still. I love how cool it is to criticise something that’s the most popular choice yet ever thought it could be the most popular choice for a reason? If Windows truly was SO bad wouldn’t have more people switched to alternatives?? Considering how much Apple’s grown since the release of the Ipod too…

I’ve used Windows for all my life and have never been without a decent PC for OS reasons. These people who tend to criticise Microsoft the most are the people who try to ’speed’ it up, install billions of programs that ‘boost’ xp.

I’ve used XP for many years now and I have it working to almost personal perfection, if I managed that (and many others) then all I can assume is it’s down to taste and you’re open to switching to linux if you’re smart or mac.
