Windows XP SP 3 Final is out.

<r> Good question. MS should offer a combined service pack if they won't be supporting XP . Didn't they do that when the first SP came out, since it was taking so long for the download? I think a lot more people were on dial-up then...I remember a big uproar over it. Too long ago for me to remember....
