Yeah, that means we must both be MAJOR nerds :)

I don't think that's true... I am running SP2 RC1 on my TabletPC (it
adds some really must-have handwriting recognition enhancements), and
Flash is working fine. I don't use IE generally, but I just fired it
up, reset all IE settings to their default (a nifty feature that SP2
adds to the Tools menu) and browsed to a couple of sites that use
Flash, including macromedia.com, and everything worked fine. Maybe if
I didn't have the latest version of Flash installed already, but I
don't really know. If you're worried, you should probably download and
install the RC2 - I've got it in a Virtual PC virtual machine at work,
but haven't had time to play with it much yet.
Cheers,
K.
