Thread Name: Tech: WinXP SR2 Major Release
Subject: RE: Tech: WinXP SR2 Major Release
There have actually been quite a few articles about the problems the beta guys have found. Unfortunately, most of them have been in places the typical users don't get to.

It took my a while to figure out that most of the problems have been "geek stuff" - mostly associated with the server programs. There are a few kinks for the game nuts, but most of them are too proud to have (or admit) any problems. Most reports are that any problems with typical user programs have been minor.

I have been "invited" to load a couple of unexpected Office updates that I suspect are intended to prevent problems that the SR2 load might cause. Anyone who hasn't looked lately might want to take a look at the Office download site as well.
