"Today we are happy to announce that Windows XP Service Pack 3 (SP3) has released to manufacturing (RTM). Windows XP SP3 bits are now working their way through our manufacturing channels to be available to OEM and Enterprise customers. We are also in the final stages of preparing for release to the web (i.e. you!) on April 29th, via Windows Update and the Microsoft Download Center. Online documentation for Windows XP SP3, such as Microsoft Knowledge Base articles and the Microsoft TechNet Windows XP TechCenter, will be updated then. For customers who use Windows XP at home, Windows XP SP3 Automatic Update distribution for users at home will begin in early summer."



Still rocking Windows XP? Then you'll have a new service pack coming your way within a few days - Microsoft has finished the bits and they'll be available on Windows Update on the 29th...though I'm a bit confused by the mention of "early summer" for XP Home. So is this April 29th release only for XP Professional then?
