Guest LVTravel Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 Re: XP Pro sp3 You are referring to Office 2003 SP 3 which was released a day ago. You will be able to go here in a day or two to order the CD http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/downloads/FX010383631033.aspx "jim w" <jimnlunaATisp.com> wrote in message news:46f18108$0$16340$88260bb3@free.teranews.com... > Can I order a cd of this new update? > My download would take 3 months on dialup. > (nothing else is available here in the sticks.] > > > > > > > -- > Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com >

Maybe, maybe not. His message subject line reads "XP Pro sp3." Moreover he asked his question in a Windows XP newsgroup. I'm not a mindreader, and I prefer not to guess that he means something other than what he said. > "Ken Blake, MVP" wrote: > > > On Wed, 19 Sep 2007 15:56:45 -0500, "jim w" <jimnlunaATisp.com> wrote: > > > > > Can I order a cd of this new update? > > > > > > No. It doesn't exist yet.

Win xp sp3 >When it comes out can I get a dvd or cd of it?? >Thanks.. >Jim Microsoft usually makes a special page for major SP release and they send it for free. They did this with SP2 at this following link http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/updates/sp2/cdorder/en_us/default.mspx for people with modems. Once the official SP3 comes out, you'll likely see a SP3 version of the above page. Hang tight, most talk on the wire says XP SP3 will be out by years end if not a bit sooner. - Thee Chicago Wolf

However, assuming that it will be like previous service packs, yes, you should be able to order it on a CD. > "Ken Blake, MVP" <kblake@this.is.am.invalid.domain> wrote in message > news:qui5f39sugsl9dkef01ocnlqonog62g5b1@4ax.com... > > On Wed, 19 Sep 2007 19:38:01 -0700, sgopus > > <sgopus@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote: > > > >> I believe he is speaking of the office 2003 svc pk, just came out. > > > > > > Maybe, maybe not.
