I've had it on for a good few months now and it has worked fine for me, no problems.
Works for me.
Not that I notice much difference.

I wouldn't download it TBH, because A there is no need, B many have had serious issues with it.
There is far less problems with sp3 than there was with sp2. If you already have all the updates for sp2 anyways there is almost no reason to not get sp3.
If you're on an AMD machine that's doing the rebooting there are work arounds and have been for months. This is the exact same issue that sp2 had.

Downloaded it the other day and have found no problems whatsoever.
Fingers crossed I won't find any at all.

You'll do barely fine if you improve it from SP2, though there'll be some drop in performances due to Microsoft's "fixes" and such.
If you install it straight from disc, SP3 OEM, you'll be really fecked. There'll be no sound.. you'll get hell bootups at random points, and your restore point will never be saved.
PS: Weaste, how're ya mate?

Fine thanks SiYuan, yourself?
I never bothered to download it, partly because of many people saying what Weaste said. May bother with it in a few months or if I re-install XP from scratch.

SP3 introduces various problems with wireless.
On the contrary, I have fewer problems with wireless now.

I've tried Vista myself and the only good thing about it is Directx 10.
