Thank you George, I noticed some very good bargains in new computers with Vista and I wondered if it would be better to wait until I
assume all new computers leave the factory with it already on. So sighted help may be needed as well, right that I will certainly remember Dorothy----- Original Message ----- From: "George Bell" <george@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

However, I would strongly advise against installing this version, and recommend waiting for 2, if not 3, things: 1) It is officially released via Windows Update. 2) Screen Reader developers have officially approved it. 3) You have sighted help to hand - possible not necessary, but who knows what might happen, so play safe. It is suggested that SP3 will improve performance. It is also supposed to fix a number of bugs.

Additionally if you were buying a new Pc would it be better to wait until this SP3 is out? Would all new computers have it on before being sold? Do those of us using Windows XP whether Home or professional need it? I do recall tristram saying something about SP3 but George saying it would not be released for some time. Now it is March has any date been mentioned?
