OT: Que viene el SP3!!!

Windows XP SP3 to arrive before Longhorn

A BLOG filing hidden away in the cobwebbed corners of the web suggests
that Windows XP SP3 will hit before Longhorn does.

The blog is written by the guys at F-Secure. The information was handed
out by Steve Ballmer, and the event was Surfa Lugnt, also known as
Swedish National Data Security Day.

Ballmer allegedly also said that IE7 would have anti-phishing technology
built in.

No-one really knows what SP3 will contain. It probably can't contain
anything huge, since the next wave of upgrades due to be ported back to
XP - the Aero UI, the file system and the like - won't be done until
Longhorn is done. It seems likely that it will just be IE7 and some
security features.

The comments come after Bill Gates mentioned at WinHEC that Longhorn
would definitely be done by the end of 2006. We'd estimate that they
clearly don't anticipate it getting done much before that.
