sp2 cd for xp pro only ?

[Bill]

At the site for ordering the CD, I can only get SP2 English for XP Pro. Is
a different disc needed for XP Home ?

Hi

The SP2 CD will install onto systems that are running XP home Edition as
well.

Did you not read ANY of the responses to your post yesterday?

Hi:

According to the information provided by the site, there are other language
versions but it will be available at a later time.

You can select the country first with the pull-down option and see what
versions are available on the second field.

I work for an international company, and I selected one foreign country and
there is an "international English" version of SP2 CD is available although
the local version of CD is not ready at this time.

We ordered some international English version of CD but yet to receive it.
It's normal, I guess, for the international shipping takes longer.

As far as for the difference between Pro and Home, my knowledge will be the
same on the file and on the CD. It will be silly if it's not.

Hope this will help.

Sorry, I forgot the CD ordering URL but should be easily found in this
group.

My post from yesterday and its responses never showed up on my news server,
so I could not read ANY of the responses. Sorry to insult you by
reposting. I guess it's your world.

Thanks to everybody else that provided a civil response.

No - the same one. They seem to be trying to push single standalone
machines towards the Windows Update approach; IMHO a bad idea
