Service Pack 2 for Windows XP

Service Pack 2 for Windows XP

Windows XP Service Pack 2 has finally gone RTM (release to manufacturers). This basically means it’s finally done and now they just have to start distributing it to all the right people. If you’ve heard that a program has gone “gold” it’s basically the same thing. Anyways…I was lucky enough to have this within an hour of being released cool smile  but that is no one’s concern as to how. lol. Basically this isn’t really a huge change for me since I’ve been using SP2 ever since it began beta testing…and I’ve actually tried to keep quite an archive of the beta process so I currently have:

Release Candidate 1 – Build 2110

Build 2120

Release Candidate – Build 2082

Build 2149

Build 2162

Build 2178

Build 2179

Final RTM – Build 2180 (as I correctly predicted)

Anyways…so I’ve seen the gradual course as this SP has evolved. This will officially be released to the general public around August 25th through Windows Update which I know all of you Windows users are visiting on a regular basis. Microsoft is also offering users to order a free cd with the SP on it. Order Your SP2 cd

Maybe I’ll post some screen shots of the new features tomorrow morning.  wink
