Access 2003 SP3? Worth it?

Yesterday, for the second time, I was informed MS had an update for me;
SP3 for MS-Office. I passed on the update. It appears some folks
aren't completely happy with it.

Is it worth my time to get it? Are there negative aspectes to it? Will
it make my life better or worse if I install it?

You may expect some problems.
You can read more about it on Allen's homepage,where you can also find a
sample database demonstrating the new problems.

Thanks. At this time I'll pass on SP3. I don't need additional headaches.
