[THIN] Re: Windows 2003 Service Pack 3

I don't see that Microsoft has announced end of support for Windows 2003, so whatever the latest service pack for 2k3 is will be supported as long as 2k3 is, which is an unannounced date at this time. I am reasonably certain 2k3 will still be on full support at the end of 2009. How long did Windows 2000 stay on mainstream support after 2k3 was issued?

Does anyone know if this is in the pipeline – and if so if there is an expected release date?

 

According to this - http://www.microsoft.com/windows/lifecycle/servicepacks.mspx no further updates are planned -  which according to this http://support.microsoft.com/lifecycle/?p1=3198 would put W2k3 going heading out of support in 2009 – am I right in thinking  that?
