Yep, the most awaited Service Pack for XP has been released. Its available for download ( free ofcourse ) at the Micro$oft site. XP OS was a big it when it was launched. It ran easily on computer which were made for Windows 98/2000. And it had no compatibility problem unlike Vista. I used XP for quite some time before i moved to vista. I bought a new PC which was vista compatible and never used XP since. Even though Vista is my favourite because of it style, looks and friendliness, i still like XP. The release of SP3 for XP shows that its still abudant out there.
One of the amazing thing is that, when tests where conducted, computer with XP SP3 outran Vista in speed tests. Does that mean XP is now more faster than Vista?
Well you'll have to find that yourself, because speed also depends on ur hardware. If u have a high-end system, both XP and Vista is going to run smoothly. The third service pack for Windows XP, reportedly gives the venerable OS a near 10 percent performance boost.
Still, i'm not expert in this. if you want to know more, google for it. You are going to find plenty of sites talking about XP SP3. But i can still give you the link to download them.

Posted by aswinrulez at Tuesday, April 22, 2008 Labels: dreascene, soundpack, soundscheme, update, video, vista, windows update Tuesday, April 22, 2008Microsoft yesterday released updates for the beautiful dreamscene and two soundschemes for vista.
Dreamscene content pack contains three beautiful videos. Better than the previous ones. I have taken screenshots and have provided them below. Take a look at it and if u like them get them via windows update Now about the sound. When i went to my sound settings i found two ultimate extra sounds. One is the ultimate extras glass and the other is ultimate extra pearl. I have checked them out and there isnt much of a difference except that some of the sounds that are in pearl isnt in glass. But its good because in pearl whenever you maximize you screen you get a sound which gets annoying after sometime.
So if you want them update your windows now.
