Erm, thats a bad link!

I won't be installing SP2 until I do a fresh install with an XP disc with SP2 included at install time.  Unfortunately the 1st release of that disk doesn't actually boot on any of the Laptops we have, so thats out the window (pun intended) for now.

Longhorn has been pushed back so far that some people recon it'll never get released.  64-bit XP has been rescheduled many times already.  I really don't care about any of this, as I get paid by the hour :-D

I have all the fun of going on a course all about MS SQL 2000 Server next week, thats going to be a riot :-?

I wouldn't install it to a current XP installation, but I've installed about a dozen copies of XP with SP2 pre-installed, and it's worked fine every time.  Lots more 'helpful' pop-ups than before though :-?

It's only a dozen as most people on the WAN want to stick with Windows 2000 ...
