    "Windows XP SP2 Gets a bad rap for no reasons"

    by RockMTL on April 26, 2005

    Pros: All you need if used right

    Cons: I haven't encountered any

    Summary: I'm kind of sick and tired of hearing all the SLAMS on SP2. I figure that those who do slam it, have nothing better to do. If you're a PC or Tech WIZ fine...do what you do best, but for the mass, SP2 is what the doctor ordered...I give it a 9 instead of 10 for the simple reason that...not enough emphasis was out on...making sure that your PC is clean...clean...clean...before downloading it. If you had problems before you downloaded SP2 with your PC, SP2 is not the magic wand to fix it. I would gather thats why many people have had problems.

    There are better systems for no-Brainers, Like the Mac OS 10. To expensive? Us XP SP2 and get your system hosed by an errant auto update patch and suddenly the cost difference disappears.
