I had major probs with SP3 until I updated drivers and reinstalled
various apps - it actually was the straw that broke the camel's back RE
using M$ products as my default browser and mail client, as they were
the ones that wouldn't stop from crashing the system...

I for one won't be installing SP4 in any hurry.

On a related note, I'm using W2K now and was wondering if there is any
point (possibility??) in using 2003 server as a desktop OS for greater
stability?
