XP Pro SP2 Disc for Apple Boot Camp

Guest

Been looking at using Boot Camp on my MacBook and Boot Camp requires a SP2
disc. I have had my XP Pro 2002 disc for a while and downloaded all the
consecutive downloads for upgrading to SP2. My question is this: Can I
request for a SP2 disc without having to purchase another Windows CD that
would put me back $300, when the downloads for SP2 are free with the
registration of an original XP Pro disc?

Just make an install disk with SP2 slipstreamed into it. Very easy to
do. I like AutoStreamer but there are other methods.
