Question Xp/sp3??????

Windows updates has XP sp3 available and recommended and I'm wondering if they've worked out some of the bugs I've read about and if it's worth
installing.
Anyone have any experience + or -?

Thanks Riddler!
I'm a little cautious about changes.

I was wondering the same thing. I updated with SP 2 pretty quick after it's
release but there were nowhere near the issues and bad press about that
update. I've been a little hesitant about SP3 myself. I was trying to wait
until I read that it's somewhat more stabilized.

If it ain't broke......

SP2 was life ruining or me for a while so hopping over to SP3 doesn't sound like anything I want to tackle this month.

Hey again!
I asked a similiar Q on a different forum and the debate got so heated the thread was locked. I won't mention the forums name here but if you'd like to read the thread I'll e-mail the forums name and address.
