Microsoft isn't hiding the link: http://download.microsoft.com/download/1/6/5/165b076b-aaa9-443d-84f0-73cf11fdcdf8/WindowsXP-KB835935-SP2-ENU.exe linked from: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/winxppro/maintain/winxpsp2.mspx (well, click "get the service pack" and then "download")
I suppose my beef here is that they go on to say: "DO NOT CLICK DOWNLOAD IF YOU ARE UPDATING JUST ONE COMPUTER: A smaller, more appropriate download is now available on Windows Update." Except it isn't. (Nor was it a week ago). I'm an IT professional, but only one of my PCs is running XP. And it's a full-price retail copy, not a bundled-OEM or upgrade. Hence me feeling left out when I'm told that "IT professionals" have already been allowed their Windows-update. As we are told that this is in part a security update, anyone running a network should be worried at the difficulty some of their users are having getting hold of it. -- Roland Perry
