"Pescatore said he expects more customers to upgrade from their Windows
2000 platforms after Microsoft ends its support for Windows 2000, which
is slated for late in 2004, and after the coming XP service {} ships (in
the second quarter next year)."
"Gartner's Pescatore described the coming Windows XP SP2 beta as a 'very
necessary update' to deal with the growing scourge of hacker attacks,
virus distribution and spam e-mail."

Not your fault for mis-reading the article though, either the journalist
left out the "beta" part out of his opening paragraph, or it was later
cut by an editor. And they both dropped the ball on the word "pack" in
the first quote where I added the {}. Sloppy Journalism.
