yes, the cd of SP2 which Microsoft is giving is the same as the one given in di9it magazine cd some months back. It is the final release of Service Pack 2.

Windows XP along with Service Pack 2 is a better and secure OS than Windows 2000 with Service Pack 4.

But remember, Service Pack 2 will not install on a pirated release of Windows XP. You'll need licensed Windows XP incase you don't have one :wink:
