Windows XP Service Pack 2 heads to retail | |
|

After winding its way across the Internet, Windows XP Service Pack 2 is headed to retail shelves. Microsoft last week started the process of swapping out all of the boxed copies of Windows XP with the updated version, with a triangle in the upper corner touting SP2 and its security enhancements. Retailer OfficeMax is among those promoting the change, advertising that it will have XP SP2 on sale starting Wednesday. Over the next month, Microsoft hopes to swap out the bulk of all boxed copies worldwide. Retailers can, through their distributor, exchange their existing Windows XP boxes for the update. "We were able to do it in fairly short order," said Matt Pilla, a senior product manager in the Windows Client unit. "It normally takes us a minimum of three months when we are refreshing the packaging." | ||

| Dell is already shipping SP2 computers. At least with OptiPlex, SP2 is your only option. |

| #4, you are just totally clueless in ANYTHING, so of course you don't understand. |
