Antitrust settlement shapes XP update | |

The software giant periodically issues free updates, known as service packs, in order to fix bugs or revamp security software. The Windows XP update is unique, however, because it adds a new control for setting default middleware--such as Web browser and media player software--as required by Microsoft's pending antitrust settlement with the Justice Department and nine of the 18 states that sued the company. | ||

Just curious, is there any new information about Windows XP Service Pack 1? In the last week I think we've had no less than 10 headlines that have said what we all knew at least two weeks before that. The old news is getting, um, old.
