At this stage, I don't think that they have time for that. Beside, it's not like Microsoft to bundle anything like this into Service Packs. The reason for that is probably because new features = more regression test, and new features = more possible vulnerability and that's the last thing they want.

If it is, the 300 million bucks you mentioned is not part of any reloaded ad campaign. It is simply the cost for pushing out sp2.

300 Million is a lot of money. I rather be compensated by Microsoft; by them sending all registered Windows XP users a free XP SP2 Full Version CD, then Microsoft trying to better it's market position in the market and make itself look good and feel better about a swiss cheese operating system being released in the first place.

IMHO of course.

No, I'd rather them push this thing out to the people too lazy to update otherwise. I paid my money and am happy with the product I received. I'm not happy with all my friends being idiots and not updating though.

I understand. :$

But people do get a bit peeved when after installing their shiny new Windows XP with SP1 they are presented with over 20 MB worth of updates, especially if they live in a country like Australia where boardband is not accessible everywhere and is expensive. :ermm:

,Jun 2 2004, 17:43] :laugh:? We agree, I like your summary of WMP10 Toxikk.

I am though quite dissapointed with the efforts that Microsoft has put into this product. I really thought they were going to do something special for their "Reloaded" 300 million dollar investment.

Would you rather they do nothing? Any update (no matter how small) is better then nothing.

If you don't like it don't use it.
