Microsoft unleashes Service Pack 3 for Windows XP

all

Posted Wednesday, 7 May 2008

Yesterday was Patch Tuesday, and Microsoft has finally released Service Pack 3 (SP3) for Windows XP. See CIO, InfoWorld, Engadget and Paul Thurrott for some comments, and fire up Windows Update or Microsoft Update to start the install. This may be the last SP release for the 2001 edition of Windows. SP3 may be enough to keep companies from upgrading their desktops to Windows Vista for the next year or two.
