Is scheduled to be avaliable for download on next tues 03/25. About the time for XP SP3 which runs about 13% faster then current SP2.

So lets hope my source is good.

Installing it now. Funny, though. My Windows updater on my notebook didn't pick up the service pack. I had to manually google it and then grab the download file that way.

That happens sometimes. My wife leaves her automatic updates on and sometimes doesn't get the updates that I get manually going to Windows updates on "Patch Tuesdays" until a few days later. Purely an unsubstantiated theory, but I think they try to spread the updates around over time to avoid bandwidth problems.
