Maybe SP3 was released to get people to move to A2007.

No, that was A2007 SP1.
It's no conspiracy theory to think that many people wait until the
first service pack before they adopt a new version. The same is
happening with Vista.

I haven't heard much good news about A2003's SP3. It seemed to make a
stable product less stable. I was making a slight joke. If one makes a
product a turkey, some may decide to kick the tires on the new model.

Yep, SP3 is a turkey. I've had to ask all my customers not to install it,
and those who have installed it to uninstall it (which is not as simple as
it sounds...)
