we just informed all our customers not to install SP2, b/c our middleware can not work w/ it. all socket functionality is completely rewritten according to the middleware provider, so it will take some time to "fix" everything. of corse new machines will be coming w/ SP2 installed

AND our customers tend to buy dedicated pcs, AND we have several prospective customers. this will be fun

OTOH, the wife downloaded and installed SP2 at home -- no issues that I know of so far
