Will Their Be An XP SP2 CD?

[Guest]

Hi. Will their be an XP SP2 update CD like Microsoft did
with the XP SP1 CD where all you have to do is pay $10.00
Shipping and Handling? Will the also offer the update CD
in stores for free? Or will they just have the full and
upgrade retail boxed versions of XP SP2 in stores?
Thanks, Craig.

We'll have to wait and see, since SP2 hasn't been released yet, but I would
imaging that they will make it available on CD.

microsoft.com/security/protect ..comes with a free
firewall of zonealarm varient and free antivirus of who
knows what.

But not SP 2 which is what the OP needs.
Also there is no indication whether there will be more of those CDs.
Unfortunately it is the first and may be the last.
But no one outside Microsoft knows.

There has been no announcement as yet - but both of those have been
urged on them and it is expected that that is what will happen.
