    If some software have the equation of "if not = sp1 or sp2" it will show error. I notice some software mentioned that it is only support windows xp sp2 and 98 only. :) some bug for this software i think if after upgrade to sp3

    SP3 doesn't speed up the system, it has just all the post-SP2 patches.

    Here we were talking about SP3. Neither Vista or linux.

    I'm also using it. I haven't noticed any changes. Just Microsoft thinking up new schemes to make a buck or two.

    I just updated to SP3 and don't see any major differences yet. I'm just glad it didn't wreak havoc on my computer like SP2 did to my old computer when it first came out.

    Yes, I've upgraded my XP machine to SP3 and it looks and feels exactly the same. I read somewhere that it runs 10% faster than previous versions, of course it's hard to notice.
