I installed this on some winbloze laptop some hours ago

and honestly I don't note a big diffeence it don't eeven seems to be new functionality

It seems they just put all the whole security patches, fix patches, updates from after sp2 to now

Man I know you are gonna hate me again but they take more than 3 years just to release this crap?

I also noted one thing I have sen alot of flamewars in the mg main page some guys talk about they want or could have dx10 on xp in sp3 and also other sites

But I guess they should stop dreaming that thing. There was NOT DX10 in this upgrade I dont think M$ didnt even have the intention to release it since the beginning.They just read outdated news of cancelled projects or other myths on the net. I dont think will be a dx10 upgrade for xp or at least offcially done by Microsoft

Also another rembering the old Masternoob flamming theread that got deleted in 2006. mAN that mR corporate line of I know everything technican ( man I gues he didnt he even arrived to that naybe was 14 years old) used to say xp was the best invention ever that vista was only meant to be more user friendly and looked like he said xp was gonna stay for the eternity but a pc market stuck on the same os forever ?forget it that has never happened and never will.

Now xp is true runs still near everything and is more stable ( I guess a lot of people already forgot the insetabilty probs , compatibility , virus, spyware vulnerabilities xp had prior to the sp2 like in 2001 2002 the from sp2 for now got more rstable) but is condemmned to to have the same fate or any previous version of windows when othe newerne is released. The support will be dumped with the years, newer hardware standards become in future years (similar like now win98 dont have any new hardwre diver fo usb memories or newer printer models drivers anymore etc) and the disliking overthe newer one and stay the previous version always become. Just to cite some example I remember when Win 95 interface got redesiged from Win 3.1 some people disliked the new onealso te new need of having am more capable pentium processor while theirs 486sx or dx2 66 ran win 96 ore slow make dislike it and wanted the orevious one,When Win 98 was relesed like in 1997 (can't rember well the date) some said was too similar on appreance to Win 95 so no big upgrade improvemnet whne Xp got released in 2001 you could enter to some chat of napster, morphehus , etc and people hated it coz could not run their win98 games, dos games (DOSbox was still not even released) on xp anymore or other apps and wanted to stay win 98 to run their 9x games or stay with win2000 coz (coz this one was supposed based on NT asXP and no supposed any real features over xp they saw). then xp becomes stable with the years win98 turns buggy hated and obsolete win2000 become some win 98 in look for people . And the same history repeat every new windows release

You won't notice any difference with SP3 unless you slipstream it into an installation.
