Re: service pak 3

Yes. The TechBeta testers who are the ones working with it the longest

report a 5% to 10% increase in performance. I think that is largly

anecdotal. I haven't seen benchmarks. But it does appear faster to me too.

I think I can clear this up. I received an email from Dave Brehm with a

screenshot. While I will not attach binaries - I have no problem putting it

up on Google. ;-)

http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/zHODlHFYZ85Kix5H1nRpBw

As you can see, Dave Brehm was offered Windows XP SP3 Release Candidate 2

through AU. My guess is that this happened because the registry hack was

applied to the system in order to allow it - but whatever - it was a version

of Windows XP SP3 <-- just obviously not the final (unreleased as of now)

version. ;-)

Re: service pak 3

Dave Brehem (dgbrehm) is the OP. While Shenan appears to have had a private

conversation with Dave in which he says he was referring to WinXP SP3, in

none of Dave's three (3) posts to this thread did he identify WinXP SP3 so

how can you say "Of course it was XP SP3...Read the posts"?...

Guys, the subject line of the OP is "service pak 3." He mentions it in the

If you installed SP3, you should have known that this is not a public

SP3 is only for qualified testors.
