Tip: This download is not for the typical end user but I.T Pro’s who need to see if anything business critical breaks on Windows XP systems.

Microsoft are getting ready to ship Windows XP Service Pack 3 and the RC2 download turned up on the Public Microsoft download site.

I would imagine they want this tested by as many people as they can.

Windows XP is by far the most dominant Operating system in use today.  So by the time the RC (release candidate) ships to end users via Windows Update they want to see how it performs in the real world.

I for one need to see it for myself, I will do a post about the experience soon.
