Requested an SP2 CD 8 weeks ago from MS but never received it. Any place
else to get one? Download too slow 26.4K...
Thanks,

No, comPusa and microcenter are about 70 miles away.

It is a good answer.. MS shipped out free copies of the SP2 CD to stores all
over the western world..
It is also available on some cover mag CDs too..

John;
Order it again, it probably was lost in shipping.
Or download on a computer with high speed internet and burn to CD.
See #1 on this link for details:

That's what I get for living near a CompUSA -
the *astards don't even answer their phone.

I guess Los Angeles isn't western enough.
The guy on the phone at CompUSA here in L.A.
doesn't even know what SP2 is. He thinks it's an
operating system. When I told him it's Service Pack 2,
a major update for Windows XP, he asked his
manager, who told him "that's on the website".
Ya see wot I mean?
