Windows XP Service Pack 3 saldrá este año

Microsoft's tight lips regarding the next Windows XP Service Pack have led many analysts to believe that Microsoft is planning to cancel it, but Microsoft has finally dated it.

However, even when announcing the date Microsoft kept it vague. All we know for now is that Service pack 3 along with Windows Server 2008 will be released within the next 7 months and that they will both support for interoperability between Microsoft's Network Address Protection (NAP) and Juniper Network's Unified Access Control (UAC) standards for network access control (NAC) deployments.

The complete Service Pack 3 features set (and the reasons why you should install it) are yet to be announced.
