Microsoft’s release of the Windows XP Sp3 was seen as a flop for people who have already installed Sp2 had all the necessary updates needed for them to safely address all security and improvement issues. The real purpose of SP3 was for those who have not downloaded the previous SP which was for the many security holes that the original XP version that was purchased by many from stores.
There was also the reality that most versions of the XP Operating system that had auto updates enabled had already received critical updates behind the scenes which rendered SP3 quite useless and a mere waste of hard disk space and other resources. There was also a very tantalizing fact that came out of the whole SP issue, the fact that XP with Sp2 or Sp3 are considered to be different versions of the original XP release, giving them their own niche in the operating system lifecycle.
