Microsfot Professional with Service Pack 2?

Anyone know when this is coming out? Will it be worth the wait / cost? Thanks.

Cool

It would not be worth the wait to me as the service packs and updates can be added as they come out. There wasn't any added cost for SP1 and I haven't heard of any planned charges for SP2.

MaximumPC Magazine was praising SP2 for improved security, wi-fi, new IE and improvements in coding. According to the article it is slated for July.

Since it doesn't cost anything the worth-the-wait issue is moot. I've been running WindowsXP SP2 RC1 for two weeks and it's nice. Nothing fantastic but the RC1 is surprisingly problem-free for me. The popup blocker works well. The improved security isn't much of a problem. I honestly think they've done a good job on the service patch.
