Microsoft had expected Office XP to sell millions and millions of copies, even though it was released hot on the heels of Office 2000, without any major enhancements. With the expectation (rightly so) that Windows XP would sell millions of copies, the hope was that people would upgrade to Office XP at the same time. Unfortunately for Microsoft's bulging coffers, it did not occur. Many companies resisted the promotional material, many consumers only received it when it was bundled free with a new PC.
Regardless, Microsoft has supported those that did install Office XP with two, and now a third service pack. SP3 is due out in April or May '04, yet build #10.6308.6403 has been touted by some to be the final build of SP3, however, since this cannot be confirmed consider this build to be beta.
