Angry Re: XP Service Pack 3...

Just followed a Technet article I found on MS by pasting the entire text string into Google search.

Apparently, RDC in SP3 has intentionally been "timebombed" to expire on April 7 due to "testing time constraints".

Which means they've made one hell of a cock-up - millions of servers are remotely managed via RDC! There are loads and loads of forums with admins fuming about this, also bitching about rollback to SP2 not being an option in around 90% of the cases.

I'm sure Microsoft can be massively sued via class-action for this, because although they said SP3 was beta at the time, nowhere did they state that any particular part of it was time-bombed.

I'm sure they've costed the computing world millions through unplanned maintenance and support since the 7th.

The slimy bastards.
