I don't really want to get into a which is better discussion, but I wanted to share my experience with SP2. I've never had a problem with it. Mostly because I just bought a new computer - and didn't have to deal with updating it before all my crap got on it.
I can understand why M$ wants to people to update their machine - any support tech knows that the more versions of a program out there - the harder it's to support it. Every piece of software has a life cycle and there are now "three" versions of XP (original release, SP1 and SP2). Until recently, I had been using Win98SE since 1998 and they just stoppped supporting it. I'm not defending M$ at all - as I prefer a lot of non-M$ software (Corel WordPerfect, Inspiration over Visio, etc.). I just wanted to say - an updater just possible cannot adapt to *all* possible situations and there is bound to be some problems. Regarding the IE being fixed - it does. But, they aren't loosing enough money to Firefox/Mozilla yet to justify a new "better" (bloatted) version. I think they have their hands full with the long over due new version of Windows! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:193235 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
