Post Your XP Service Pack 3 Experience Here

[paid]

I downloaded XP Service Pack 3 through automatic updates It took about 20 minutes installation after download.............. no noticeable difference in performance as I have read reports that there is an improvement in speeds on some systems ............the only improvement would be support for WPA2 wireless encryption......... So if you expecting some performance boost It is not true in my case except the feeling of more security.

is there any difference observed in the GUI ?

My system is kinda acting fast and well responsive after installing SP3(i have just 256 MB RAM and P4 2.4 GHz)
Actually i have installed the SP3 a week ago before a defect was found and it was withheld for downloading...

I think this last SP is the best SP in case of windows XP
A highly recommended download...BTW i have heard that they have removed the defect and have released RTM version in the site...
What shall i do now...i have already SP3
and moreover that defect(Microsoft Dynamics Retail Management System (RMS)) will not affect me.

SP3 is gun and system is working more stable on s/w fronts..and the response too has improved.

and it comes with addons like .net framework 3.5, latest IIS etc. gud
