Will XP SP3 ever arrive?

Posted by Graeme Wearden

Last week, we reported that Microsoft has pushed back the launch of the third service pack for XP. This decision appears to have alarmed some in the IT community, who now doubt that XP SP3 will ever ship - according to this article on PC Advisor.

But why would Microsoft decide not to ship an important update to XP users? Well, with Vista apparently failing to thrill the market, it needs all the help it can get. SP3 might just tempt XP users to sit tight.
