What time does patch Tuesday start? I'm really looking forward to XP SP3!

Isn't it rolled out throughout the day? Not certain about that though.

SP3 was postponed - apparently it breaks stuff used by some businesses. So does the SP1 for Vista. Seems it broke enough to be pulled pending a conditional update process so such businesses are not exposed to an automatic SP3 update.

Well considering they try to break every other companies software by mangling their own I'm not surprised. I posted this thraed originally before the SP3 bug was announced. Yay...now I get to wait even longer.

I've read a lot of people with dual core CPUs like myself have seen noticeable performance improvement even though they already had all available Windows updates.

Maybe it integrates some of the separate multi-core updates? AMD has had that Athlon update for optimising multi-core operation for a while now right?
