Hello,

I was just curious if anyone has tested Win XP SP2 Beta. If so, was there
an increase in the performance of Windows?

Thanks,

Francis

Testing it here; no basic performance change noticed.

Are you referring to Windows XP SP2.
This is still in beta development and isnt advisable to use it in a productive environment.

I'm afraid you're always going to find idiots who don't heed warnings -
probably because they don't read them in the first place!

Probably don't read instruction manuals or stop to ask for directions
