Yet another reason to NEVER be an early adopter for MS if you actually give a damn about what you are doing. Test boxes that do nothing don't matter... Machines that you need are a different matter...

It seams like Microsoft have a bit of work cut out for them yet before releasing this SP2 but as normal they will just release it all the same and then fix all the bugs.

All in all, I've been pleased with SP2. Put it on 5 machines without a glitch. Everything works except my gmail login, and I suspect that may be googles problem more than SP2's. All machines seem to boot faster as well.

Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me.

I installed SP2 about two weeks ago now and apart from the new firewall and that it uses up even more memory to boot I don't see any differences at all.
