Any point in installing it if you have a fully patched system?

There are new features, but they're mostly stuff that lie behind the scenes that you won't notice. |

Re: XP SP3 coming..
SP3 has been around on beta since last year. i had no problems with the first beta however with the latest release Realtek HD Audio doesnt work (nor do any of the fixes), plus you cant uninstall it. so if you have Realtek HD Audio dont bother cuz you'l have to reinstall windows. btw i looked on various forums & its a known problem with SP3.

So it may well be real, but it's not a direct d/load from Microsoft, so I'll hold off for the moment!  |

- Because it's not direct from Microsoft
- I don't like to download Microsoft patches from 3rd partys
- It'll (probably) be faster from Microsoft
- We've waited for a year+ for it, another week or two won't make any difference

Also, what I described above actually happened. Microsoft's lawyers DID write to the author of Autopatcher and ask him to stop developing it.
Either way, Microsoft are due to release it in three days, so what real difference would waiting make?
