What to Expect in XP SP2 -- 9:34 am CST, Update by A.T. Hun

Information Week posted a lengthy article on Microsoft's upcoming Service Pack 2 (SP2) for Windows XP. Although this article was written with corporate use in mind, it does provide a good heads-up for all of you XP-using folks out there. In general, I think that the upcoming fixes in SP2 are all Good Things, but what is really needed is a complete rewrite with security in mind, especially with Internet Explorer. Thankfully for the IE-using crowd (boo hiss), the popularity of Mozilla and Opera is forcing MS for take a long look the the browser we all love to hate. Thanks Slashdot.
