If memory serves me right.... the forest/trees tombstone values whatevers (you know those things we never worry about in SBSland) are different depending on how that SP1 got on the box... 2003 RTM you have 60 days 2003 SP1 (clean install) you have 180 days 2003 R2 (clean install) you have 60 days (they kinda went backwards on the r2 and reintroduced the 60 days if I remember right.)
