Do the extensions added by 3.0 run on XP or are only targeted for Vista?

I was not clear in my question. Do the feature that 3.0 bring to Windows:
WCF & WPF, do they run on XP?

I think your question was clear, and I think the reply was clear.

As the text Jon quoted says, Windows XP Service Pack 2 is a "Supported
Operating System", meaning .NET 3.0 works on that platform.

So, if you don't have SP2 installed, that could be an issue. But
otherwise, the .NET 3.0 features, including WCF and WPF, are supported
on Windows XP.

The fact that they're supported on XP (as quoted) means that yes, they
run on XP.

If I didn't understand the answer, i wouldn't have clarified it. Sorry to
bother such an all knowing expert such as you.
