    "WOW ! What other Users say ?"

    March 21, 2009  |   By Darren Dheilly

    Pros

    It Is great, works great, I have No problems at all but I have an Origiinal IBM Pentium 4 a real Intel system.

    Cons

    A little But slower by .01 % But No Big Deal, I did not see any change...

    Summary

    I could niot undersatand why all downloaders of SP 3, Hate it ?, I see No problems with it al all.. Maybe it just does Not like Non Intel systems, I have an original IBM Pentium 4 (intel) it installed great, Ran great and works Fine... I had No problems wih it. But It did make a problem downloading Updates from Microsoft. But that I easily Fixed with 2 commands, and once I did that It Ran Great once again. My pal had an AMD based system and it Crapped it up. now it is a door stop. But if you love your Intel and sp2, Maybe you will Like SP3, I did - But Not too good for Novice user... .
