if the sp3 is slow down, den why people wan upgrade? and why microsoft wan release it?

sp3 will be in cd for Mr. Jack Sparrow version but for ori.. so far none i think..

sp3 is estimate to be release at 2008 first half
meanwhile, all are beta or pre-release version at this moment

not ori user may be update but for sure the WGA tattoo will appear if they allow upgrade..

From what I hear from other beta testers (I don't test for XP anymore since I already signed up for Vista's)
- Improvement in hardware/sofware communication, thus faster performance
- Patches/fixes for bugs/holes
- Windows Genuine Update.

The last bit intruiges me. It's based on the Vista's version where EVERY copy needs to be activated online, without it windows will run in limited mode. It also blacklist many hacks such as Pirated CD Keys, Bios emulation (also for Vista), and timestopper. Expect pirated version to take a longer time before releasing this.

Ok, if there are speed improvements then it's worth to give it a shot biggrin.gif If it doesn't work well (especially with my VTP) then I'll have to ghost the fresh copy out again and re-install everything.

it's the same with Vista actually. You need internut to verify than ur ready to go. But verification is easy. I verified mine on a dial up in just less than 10 seconds

I installed it and don't notice much of a difference. You'll lose your VTP changes and have to re-do it again.
However when you install, it gives an error this time saying it can't patch uxtheme.dll
