In an email sent to selected testers telling them they have been accepted to begin testing XP SP3, Microsoft has also informed them that this will be the final Service Pack for the now aging OS.
Quote - As is standard practice for operating systems nearing the end of their sales period, Microsoft will be releasing a final Service Pack for Windows XP in the first half of 2008. Microsoft is pleased to announce the availability of Windows XP Service Pack 3 Beta Preview, to Windows Vista Service Pack 1 and Windows Server 2008 beta testers.
Therefore it will be quite fitting to see the final Service Pack for XP arguably one of the most stable platforms Microsoft has created so far, landing around the same time as Service Pack 1 for Vista its much maligned latest OS. Lets us know which you would prefer as your OS of choice now by voting in the poll attached to this news item.

with vista one get a operating system that is:
a threat to the enviroment (due to
its extremely high hardware cravings for running smoothly, which affects in turn how many
tons of computer aroudn the world that must be thrown away, and therefore affects the
enviroment)
a threat to your integrity
a big threat to your integrity
because of the nature of the built in wga and drm
a threat to your freedom to
use your computer and multimedia as you want due to the drm
with vista you get
an operating system that very clearly has been designed for the american
music/movie-industrys need to control you instead of an os designed the way you want an
os to be...
im not like vista
i not gonna buy it
or
use it
for me xp was the last real os from microsoft, and something im gonna use as long as
possible for the needs there my linux still dont work.
but vista? no way, not a
chanse..
i tested vista once till i found out about that drm wga cr*p. i'm not using a os
developed by music/movie industries. i'm keeping xp for now, and if i need to move to
another os, i will to linux. no more m$ drm music/movie industry sh*t. (btw, 300$+ the
vista ultimate cr*p? ha!...)
dont lke vista then do with it wat do u think xp sp3 is based on it will have uac all the
hotfixs new product key coding that can not be cracked
i doubt that, uac is a "feature" of vista, something they claim is revolutionary, and
therefore worth a good quarter of the $200 you paid for vista. -_-
if xp sp3
has uac, i will go back to windows 2000. ( they can't implement drm into xp with a
service-pack. )
