Because I do not even know what Microsoft Dynamic RMS is, I took the plunge and installed SP3. It is fantastic! My laptop is much snappier, what a pleasant surprise :)

and how do you know if you have Microsoft Dynamic RMS installed? is that an actual program you buy or some kind of obscure MS background app?

Wouldn’t doubt it if every time something went wrong on WinXP-SP3 a pop-up message comes up trying to get people to use Vista.

LONG LIVE XP! (at least until Windows 7 aka Vista SP2 *grin*)

I think we may still see the odd hotfix/security patch, but we need to acknowledge that there will be no new features added to XP. In my case, the biggest issue is the problem with Creative drivers. After shelling out 500 smackers for their top-of-the-line Audigy card with breakout box, I’m not interested in spending money in order to *lose* functionality, thank you !!!

I think that Microsoft is going to have to accept that XP will be around for a lot longer than they want and will have to support it. I am not just talking about the UMPC but the the corporate desktop world. I do tech support for several medical centers and the majority of there software is still not compatible with Vista and most of what is requires purchasing an upgrade which is just not going to happen.
