Microsoft has delayed the release of XP SP3 to end users (as April 29). The reason: "InfoWorld blogger Randall Kennedy insinuates that Microsoft is delaying Window XP SP3 to talk up the release of Windows Vista SP1. Kennedy believes Microsoft is showing its true colors by trying to salvage a fledgling product instead of releasing a much-needed rollout to its loyal customers."
Yet, there is a direct link for downloading SP3 leaked, named windowsxp-kb936929-sp3-x86-enu_c81472f7eeea2eca421e116cd4c03e2300ebfde4.exe. According to microsoft website, kb936929 is Release Candidate 3 version. I ｂｅｌｉｅｖｅ ｔｈｉｓ ｉｓ ｔｈｅ ｆｉｎａｌ ｒｅｌｅａｓｅ ｖｅｒｓｉｏｎ．
OK, I have downloaded and installed it on my laptop. It was smooth and no problems met. Indeed, Ｉ can feel the computer runs faster than before. So, upgrading to SP3 is highly recommendated.
