Hehe Good point, Back on Topic, Have you installed SP3? Have you noticed and performance in crease or decrease or the like?
Dont have DSL @ home.. but I am working on getting the update soon..
I know that there have been some positive reports compared to the Vista SP1 fiasco
I also heard that it apparently increases performance by 30% sounds bit suspect to me? Oh wells I am gonna download it now and try it when I get home. Is this the final release or is it just a RC or the like?

Maybe you heard wrong, there was a company that did benchies between XP SP2 & SP3 & also vs Vista SP1 & SP2, they said that there's a 10% increase in speed for ms office applications. They did not release the benchmark results.
I have tested SP3 RC2 over the past couple of days. It has really made a significant performance increase on the pc. I ran performance test on the pc afterwards and say a 100 point increase...

Well my outlook is muchos faster & since a lot of my work involves email I'd say it's worth it, to me at least. Apparently according to theinquirer SP3 final release will be available the last 2 weeks of April.

when will this damn service pack arrive!?
It's same time last week when Sp1 was released so wft?
Its part of Microsoft's policy to bloat and and stall..and when we are tiered of there gloating, then they release it... Possibly they found more bugs and they undergoing the debugging process before release...

Good things comes to those who wait... personally, I don't think MS's policy is to bloat & stall, rather to screw the customer & make more $$ out of us.
Ok.. I tried SP again, restarted and checked everything... And this time, my network and internet connections worked fine... For a day. Then, without changing anything, or without even restarting again- I let the laptop hibernate) I received a big F# you. Internet isn't working anymore. My normal network still runs fine, and all the other pc's have internet access.
So... Something in SP3 got changed somewhere and again I'm screwed. If anyone can help me, please... I'm really fed up with this.
If it helps: I got SP3 from the NAG DVD and my laptop specs are as follows:
Acer Extensa 5620G
Intel Core2 Duo T5450
2GB DDR2 667
ATi Mobility Radeon HD2400 XT
160GB HDD
