Microsoft Makes Windows XP SP3 RC2 Publicly Available

@ 2008/02/20
While Windows Vista Service Pack 1 (SP1) has received the bulk of the attention for the past few months, there's another service pack eagerly awaited for Windows users: Windows XP SP3.

Microsoft released SP3 to testers last week, but the general public can now download the service pack via Windows Update. Users have to first download a small registry file from Microsoft which gives them special access to Windows Update to download SP3.

been running it for a while now, good to have a single update instead of the gazillon updates before
