Last night at my MCSA class I mentioned to our Instructor that I was giving my husband my spare copy of XP Home upgrade which I have running on my test computer because XP now ships with SP2 and my husband is not up to it if there are problems.

The Instructor said that after Christmas we will be forced to accept SP2 from Windows Update if we do not have it whether we want it or not. Surely this cannot be true if only because those of us with dial up access could never download it before we get timed out?

If it is true then I will roll my husband's computer back to Millenium.
