I doubt it, they'd lose a lot of customers, and demand for vista wouldn't grow. I personally feel they're in a bit of a dilemma. They want to get rid of old XP, but vista's a flop and they want to get rid of that as well. Roll on Windows 3.11!

SP3 didn't seem to crash for me; seeing as though it's just an amalgamation of all updates since SP2, I'd find it hard to believe it's a conspiracy of any sort.
