I don't use XP, but I'm sure it's the final release on the Microsoft site.
Regarding Save to PDF, take a look at www.primopdf.com It's an ad supported PDF printer, but it works perfectly fine and I've used it many times in the past, the ads aren't irritating either. You just install it and click print and choose the Primo PDF printer, which prints it to PDF file

As far as I know, the link provided in the thread discussing Windows XP Service Pack 3 (the one that is linked in the FAQ) links to the final, proper version of SP3

SP3 is not out yet...by the way. It got delayed, again. Because of some 'RMS' ussue or something.

Yes it is out... the link works perfectly... even on local only access...

It has only been withheld from distribution via automatic update until they fix the issue with that other software - MS Retail Management.
But if you don't use that you can go ahead and do the update.

But will it be exactly the same as the file that they'll release once the bug has been sorted? Will they fix the bug on SP3's side or RMS' side?

SP3 Also killed all my Internet? I have tried everything, did you get yours sorted out? If you did I would be grateful to know how.SP3 seemed a bit quicker than SP2 for me at least, but I had to roll back everytime to SP2. Tried it on a clients machine and it killed his Internet as well, but not serious as he doesn't use Internet on that machine.
TIA

I tried SP3 today. Loaded from a windows disk I had slipstreamed. Just two problems, had to load IE7 from Windows Update cause the version I had downloaded before wont install, IE7 kept doing the Run Once thing every time you opened it, had to stop that with a regedit. IE7 still now working right, wont open new tabs or link and wont work with gmail. IE7 and SP3 seems to have lots of issues. Going to install to SP2 again tomorrow morn.
Other thing was network related, had to turn the authentication stuff under the network card "authentication" tab off because though it got the IP from the DHCP it didn't want to allow my Novell login to run.
