Users of Microsoft Windows XP can look forward to a third service pack at the end of the month. On April 29th, the third (and probably final) service pack will be released via Windows Update and Microsoft downloads.
Service Pack 3 rolls up all of the previously released XP fixes, and also adds some new features which make XP more compatible with Windows Server 2008. These new features include Management Console 3.0 and Windows Installer 3.1.
Microsoft have however promised that the user's experience will not be significantly changed after installation of this service pack.
