I don't use XP, can't tell. But the opinion of one man isn't that impressive.

Release candidates are not beta's. That's why beta's are called beta's
and releasecandidates releasecandidates.

Eventhough, beta's should already have a certain reliability, since
beta means: ready for a scheduled releasetime. That is even more so
for releasecandidates because (yes:) they are releasecandidates.

If you think that your shoes fit everybody, you might not be as smart
as you want to be. I've seen my share of hardware and software drama
the past 20 years. I'm convinced that a package as SP2 has too much
impact for certain users, may it be because of legacy reasons, maybe
because of hardware restraints (Compaq anybody?) or even more simpler
reasons.

Well, there's a first time for everything.
