Service Pack 3!
This just in: Microsoft is releasing Service Pack 3 for Windows XP on April 29th. It looks like it’s just going to be a roll-up of all of the updates up to this point, which is quite promising - Windows XP SP2 is running somewhere in excess of 80 updates by this point. It doesn’t look like Microsoft is going to be adding too much new functionality, which should make it a lot easier for people to adopt without fear of reprisal. By the looks of the whitepaper, it’s all about helping Windows XP work a little better with Windows Server 2008, which is fine by me.
