Can I download the ISO of the XP Home SP2 CD? The website says it takes 4
to 6 weeks for the CD.

Thanks

I got mine when it was first made available and it arrived in
less than a week. If you want to download the entire service
pack, go here:

Windows XP Service Pack 2 Network Installation Package for IT
Professionals and Developers
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

You can safely ignore the warning about not downloading if
you're only updating one computer.

In addition and to touch on another post, I've ordered it, I've had people
order it, I've never seen it take longer than a week or so. Right now, in
the middle of the holidays, assuming you have regular postal mail (it's free
in AU for instance and to be honest, they have some not-so-regular mail in
my observation) it might take a few extra days but it's never taken that
long to get the CDs from them before for me here or anyone I know of for
that matter.

Thanks for all of the responses.

Is there also a list of all of the updates since SP2?
