Does Microsoft have any credibility left with release dates?

"Service Pack 2 for Windows XP will be released in June... wait, make that July.... did we say July, what we meant was August, and we mean it this time."

It now appears that Microsoft's service pack 2 for Windows XP (the service pack that should help plug some of the giant security holes in Windows) won't be released until August. Not only has Microsoft had to pull developers off of Longhorn to work on SP2, but they are going to deliver it way late. I am starting to wonder when we will hear about Longhorn slipping another year to 2007.
