just wondering what the consensus is on SP2 RC2 re the 'average' user,
is there a lot of issues/crashes/fubar going on? Or, is RC2 at least
as reliable as the original XP?
I have a few FCKGw unlicensed XP boxes and would like to try RC2
mainly for virus protection as it seems these days the virus
writers are winning the game and the average Windows user has exactly a
0.000% chance of remaining uninfected, and a 100.000% chance of
having an unusable XP box, within a week of doing surfing/email.

I certainly would advise Linux for the average user starting out these
days. Suse/Mandrake look a whole lot better than XP to me.
If a solid SP2 doesnt come out soon, Linux might really finally
eat M$'s lunch, and we would all be better off for it.
