XP question?
I believe I read that Microsoft will continue to keep supporting XP even though Vista has been released. Is it also true that Microsoft is releasing XP SP3 too?

Oh yes they will certainly keep supporting XP for quite awhile yet. I don't think it was too long ago that they finally ended win98 support.

Microsoft ended support July 11, 2006
Quote:
July 11, 2006 will bring a close to Extended Support for Windows 98, Windows 98 Second Edition, and Windows Me as part of the Microsoft Lifecycle Policy. Microsoft will retire public and technical support, including security updates, by this date.

Existing support documents and content, however, will continue to be available through the Microsoft Support Product Solution Center Web site. This Web site will continue to host a wealth of previous How-to, Troubleshooting, and Configuration content for anyone who may need self-service.
