I have previously stated my reservations regarding Extensions methods, however this Eli Lopian's post still makes a good read.

Those of you who have an MSDN subscription should be able to get WinXP SP3 by navigating to the "Top Subscriber Downloads" part of the MSDN home page (scroll at the bottom).

The link is labelled Windows XP Service Pack 3 (x86) - CD (English)

Update: It's worth noting that if for some reason you don't want Windows Update to install WinXP SP3 automatically, you can block it.

I recently downloaded and started playing with Unity, trying to see if it fits our project's needs. You can grab the installer from CodePlex, which also includes a couple of quickstarts.

Personally I found the bundled quickstarts too advanced and complicated for someone that hasn't used IoC frameworks before. In my opinion they try to demonstrate too much functionality at once. In any case, I decided to create a small project that would put Unity to use and I thought I'd share it here, as others may find it useful.

Enjoy
