Just a funny sidenote, from the official newschannel for SP3...

i have checked that file and our english full download file. they are exactly the same up to the last byte. so there is no such RTM stuff or anything. its still the .3 file that is out there...

as i said.. bunch of naive fools out there.

So what do YOU think will be the RTM build of SP3 ?

I must admit I am a little lost by all this. My last version is digitally signed on July 23 - think I got it from a link on Bink's home page. The iso I have has files from July 9th. those are the two lastest versons I have - not counting an old one from October, I think.

The latest one posted at betaplace, was 3.154.3

I hate to hear the news that the build 3.154.3 may still not be the SP3 final because this may possibly turn my newly released SuperW2KSP3 to a Preview CD only!

Lol.... SP3 Build 3.154.3 is exactly equal to SP3 Final Build! Don't worry!

I have just completed CRC comparision on all extracted files/folders between SP3 Build 3.154.3 & the SP3 Final downloaded from M$, they are all IDENTICAL.

Therefore, my SuperW2KSP3.ISO is a REAL SP3 FINAL!

tum te tum... COOL :D

But I have a Q...
In my 3.154.3 ISO the readme states "Release Candidate"

And I don't see any official final realese when I enter the "open" parts of MS.

Where did U find your final, and how can you tell it's final ?

My "Final" was downloaded from M$ site. My SuperW2KSP3 3in1 CD does not contain those RC stuffs. I am not sure if the RTM will be different from "FINAL" though!
