Unless and until I see confirmation from Microsoft, as far as I'm

concerned this is nothing but unsubstantiated rumor. Like other rumor,

it may or may not turn out to be correct.

Seems (like has been repeated here countless times) that it will be

released when they release it. Nothing different, no breaking news, same

old "much ado about naught" from the "press". ;-)

May not be a contributing factor, but with Vista Service Pack 1 just

coming online via Microsoft Update it may be a capacity issue. Trying

to distribute both Service Packs simultaneously might present too much

of a Server load.

I don't think so. In any case another article this week absolutely assures

one and all that SP3 will go live after Mar 23. The source is knowlegeable.

So much for articles.

And it may turn out to be true; some rumors are correct. I have no

idea. My point is only that it's nothing more than a rumor.

 

I'm not interested in playing the rumor game, and I'm in no hurry to

get it. When it comes out, it will be out, and I'll install it then.

Oh - you missed my play on words.

I think our RUMOURS are more likely to be correct than your RUMORS :-)

Ken,

Well, George B Shaw did say that England and America were two nations

separated by a common language.
