...And all of this assumes that one can download SP3 in the first place. We are located in a remote area and have access only by 28.8 kb lines.
NO, SP3 is NOT available on CD as of 12 May 2008.
NO, SP3 standalone download is not an option. At 300+ mb that's a 43 hour download.
And NO, SP3 single download has not survived more than 30-40 minutes before MS simply "went away" (i.e. No failure and not a temporary interrupt...communications simply stopped and did not resume.)
Given the stated content of SP3 (clean-up of previous upgrades, patches and fixes), I don't intend to download or install SP3 until MS can provide a clean download and install.
