    IBM to staff: No SP 2 Yet

    ?IBM Corp., for one, is holding off on installing the security focused update for Windows XP. In a note headlined ?To patch ? or not to patch? posted Friday on its corporate intranet, IBM tells its employees not to download SP2 when it becomes available because of compatibility issues. A copy of the note was obtained by IDG News Service. ?While this patch may be good news for other Microsoft Windows XP owners, IBM is directing XP users not to install SP2,? the note states. With close to 400,000 desktops, IBM is a very large Microsoft customer. ?IBM?s large number of Web applications will need to be tested and some modified to work correctly with SP2. Currently, some high profile, business-critical applications are also known to conflict with SP2,? IBM tells its employees in the note. ?When the current issues and concerns have been addressed, IBM will deploy a customized version of SP2.? ?

              Thats what they are doing.

              Sp2 was ready for release over 2 months ago and was almost released.

              They wanted to take a month to fix some compatability issues and then release it.

              It was up till now supposed to be released this August.. Like in a few weeks from now, if not this week...

              But critics are now saying they need to wait till the fall, and MS is seriously considering it..

              It will be intresting to see what happens.

              Until then Jesus is happy.

              VERY happy.
