	Starting in April, 2003, the SPEAR2 storage ring was removed and replaced with a new 500 mA, 3 GeV light source, SPEAR3. The SPEAR2 storage ring had been in use for high energy physics, then synchrotron radiation since 1972. Commissioning of SPEAR3 started on December 8, 2003 and synchrotron radiation will be delivered to the first users on March 8, 2004. SPEAR3 commissioning will be reviewed, including discussion of diagnostics, orbit control, optics correction and high current studies.

	On December 15, 2003, 8 1/2 months after the last electrons circulated in the old SPEAR2 storage ring and 5 days after the beginning of commissioning, the first electrons were accumulated in the completely new SPEAR3 ring. The rapid installation and commissioning is a testimony to the SPEAR3 project staff and collaborators who have built an excellent machine and equipped it with powerful and accessible machine modeling and control programs. The final year of component fabrication, system implementation and testing, the 7-month installation period leading up to the beginning of commissioning, and lessons learned are described.
